Haydn’s The Creation by Haydn, od (2017/2017), Dyrygent Thomas Dausgaard, City Halls, Glasgow, Wielka Brytania

“When I think of God, I can write only cheerful music” said Joseph Haydn. So when he turned to the greatest story of all time, his imagination simply bubbled over. The Creation is filled with sparkling melodies, blockbuster choruses and a joyous, generous spirit that finds room for both angels and earthworms. But Haydn saw further than other men – and his depiction of a universe emerging from chaos inspired music of cosmic grandeur. With the Edinburgh Festival Chorus and a first-class team of soloists, Thomas Dausgaard will bring all his signature freshness and verve to some of the most life-affirming sounds you’ll ever hear.
