"Passion! Homilius Mark Passion in the Berlin Cathedral"
Around 250 years ago, the Dresden Kreuzkantor Gottfried August Homilius created his 'St. Mark Passion', a work that is as large-scale as it is colorful and that the Berlin Cathedral Choir will resound shortly before Easter. Artistic and sensitive arias, expressive choral settings and gallant orchestral sounds bring the biblical passion report to life with great expressiveness. In terms of its drama, Homilius' music ties in with the great works of the Baroque period, while at the same time striving for simplicity finds its very own, sensitive tonal language.

The final chorale of the Passion has a surprise in store with its unusually joyful tone, which in this way already heralds Easter. In addition to the great passions of his predecessor Johann Sebastian Bach, Homilius' St. Mark's Passion is also an insider's tip: an almost unmanageable number of compositions testifies to Homilius' creative power, which is why his contemporaries considered him the "greatest church composer". But after his death, Homilius was soon forgotten - for centuries his extensive work slumbered like a slumber. Only recently did a Homilius renaissance begin. The Berliner Domkantorei under the direction of Adrian Büttemeier, accompanied by the baroque orchestra Aris & Aulis, takes part in the rediscovery of this literally great music.

English

„Passion! Homilius-Markuspassion im Berliner Dom“
Vor rund 250 Jahren schuf der Dresdner Kreuzkantor Gottfried August Homilius mit seiner ‚Markuspassion‘ ein so großangelegtes wie farbenreiches Werk, das die Berliner Domkantorei kurz vor dem Osterfest neu zum Klingen bringt. Kunstvolle und empfindsame Arien, expressive Chorsätze und galante Orchesterklänge erwecken den biblischen Passionsbericht mit großer Ausdruckskraft zum Leben. In ihrer Dramatik knüpft Homilius’ Musik an die großen Werke des Barock an, findet im gleichzeitigen Bestreben um Einfachheit aber eine ganz eigene, empfindsame Tonsprache.

Eine Überraschung hält dabei mit seinem ungewohnt freudigen Ton der Schlusschoral der Passion bereit, der dieserart bereits vom Osterfest kündet. Neben den großen Passionen seines Vorgängers Johann Sebastian Bach ist Homilius’ Markuspassion gleichsam ein Geheimtipp: Zwar zeugt eine kaum überschaubare Menge an Kompositionen von Homilius’ Schaffenskraft, weshalb er seinen Zeitgenossen als „größter Kirchencomponist“ galt. Doch nach seinem Tod geriet Homilius bald in Vergessenheit – jahrhundertelang schlummerte sein umfangreiches Werk einen Dornröschenschlaf. Erst in jüngster Zeit setzte eine Homilius-Renaissance ein. An der Wiederentdeckung dieser im Wortsinn großartigen Musik beteiligt sich die Berliner Domkantorei unter Leitung von Adrian Büttemeier, begleitet vom Barockorchester Aris & Aulis.
