"Day of Wrath" a wild storm

16.11.2010 - WORMS From Gunter Weigand CONCERT Bach Choir, Kantorei and Heidelberger Alzeyer Cantata Orchestra with Verdi's "Requiem" in Dreifaltigkeitskirche

Ein Konzertereignis solcher Größe gibt es in Worms nicht alle Tage: Der Wormser Bachchor und die Alzeyer Kantorei begeisterten mit einer packenden Aufführung von Giuseppe Verdis Messa da Requiem für Solistenquartett, Chor und Orchester unter der Leitung von Kantorin Ellen Drolshagen.Man kann sich kaum vorstellen, wie viele Stunden ihrer Freizeit die Sänger in den letzten Monaten geopfert haben müssen, um für diesen Tag so gut gerüstet zu sein. Während Ellen Drolshagen das monumentale Werk mit den Wormsern einstudiert hatte, zeichnete ihr Kollege Hartmut Müller für die Vorbereitung in Alzey verantwortlich. Besonders nachhaltigen Eindruck hinterließ das massive „Dies irae, "like a theme should have more time during return of the Requiem. The chorus powerfully proclaimed the "holy rage" while the orchestra played Heidelberger cantata in a wild storm descending figures. The percussion acted so violently that it was imagined the day of Judgement lively konnte.Die solo roles particularly busy, especially Xavier Morano as a tenor. The lyric "Ingemisco" rang in his interpretation in radiant beauty, and would in an opera also made a good impression. Grunewald also Uta (mezzo soprano) was with her delicate but assertive timbre convince completely. They harmonize well with soprano Jacqueline Treichler, which was reflected in an enchantingly beautiful "Recordare.

Thomas Herberich brought his bass good for development, was threatening the "Confutatis" the darker aspects of his multi-faceted voice as he liked elsewhere with gently sung parts.

There was already an impressive achievement, as Ellen Drolet this massive orchestra had almost ninety minutes in the handle and moving her way. The orchestra did not hit over the traces, was positioned in the overall sound of chorus and soloists well. The cellos rendered in "Offertorio" at their considerably prominent figure some intonational Patzer, this however made it through expressive playing up for that. In "Libera me" was the musicians who perhaps best moment of the entire Requiem. Jaqueline Treichler shone here with a great solo that was accompanied only by the choir. Before they turn to the end happened, the orchestra turned on again to auszuklingen softly. The choir breathed twice "Libera me", then the Requiem was complete. For several minutes the applause rained one on all the parties who could be justifiably proud of this performance. Not only the individual performances were good, but also the interaction between the individual groups.
