Approved

With his "Lobgesang" Mendelssohn broke new formal ground and, according to his own statement, created a "symphony-cantata". In fact, he almost succeeded in resolving the contradiction between instrumental and vocal music. The work consists of three instrumental movements and a cantata for three soloists and choir based on quotations from the Bible. The "hymn of praise" was premiered on the occasion of the four hundredth anniversary of the invention of the printing press on June 25, 1840 in Leipzig's Thomaskirche. In the final movement, for example, the triumph of light over darkness is praised, for which Beethoven's Fifth was certainly the godfather. Certainly no coincidence, since the invention of the printing press by Johannes Gutenberg symbolizes the victory of the human spirit over former ignorance on a different level.

English

Mit seinem "Lobgesang" betrat Mendelssohn formales Neuland und schuf laut eigener Aussage eine "Sinfonie-Kantate". Tatsächlich gelang es ihm, die Gegensätzlichkeit von Instrumental- und Vokalmusik nahezu aufzulösen. So besteht das Werk aus drei instrumentalen Sätzen und einer auf Bibelzitaten basierenden Kantate für drei Solist*innen und Chor. Zur feierlichen Uraufführung gelangte der "Lobgesang" anlässlich der Vierhundertjahrfeier der Erfindung des Buchdrucks am 25. Juni 1840 in der Leipziger Thomaskirche. So wird im Schlusssatz der Triumph des Lichts über die Dunkelheit gepriesen, wofür sicherlich Beethovens Fünfte Pate stand. Sicher kein Zufall, symbolisiert doch die Erfindung des Buchdrucks durch Johannes Gutenberg auf anderer Ebene den Sieg des menschlichen Geistes über die einstige Unwissenheit.
