Approved

In 2010, the Grammy-winning American maestro John Nelson and expert on sacred music and Beethoven conducted the Chamber Orchestra of Europe and Gulbenkian Choir in the Grand Auditorium for a recording of Beethoven’s Missa Solemnis that gained global attention. Apropos of this, Michael Tanner wrote in the BBC Music Magazine that Nelson “succeeds in conveying the urgency of his view”. It ended by declaring that it seemed “unlikely that Beethoven’s vision in this work will ever be more completely captured”. The maestro will return to Gulbenkian Música to unite the Gulbenkian Choir and Orchestra for a performance of this Missa, of which he has an intimate and deep understanding.

Em 2010, o maestro norte-americano John Nelson, premiado nos Grammy e grande especialista em música sacra e em Beethoven, dirigiu no Grande Auditório a Chamber Orchestra of Europe e o Coro Gulbenkian numa gravação da Missa Solemnis de Beethoven que correu mundo. A propósito da interpretação, Michael Tanner escreveu na BBC Music Magazine que Nelson era “bem-sucedido na transmissão da urgência da sua visão”. E terminava declarando parecer-lhe “improvável que, nesta obra, a visão de Beethoven pudesse ser captada de forma mais completa”. O maestro regressa agora à Gulbenkian Música para unir Coro e Orquestra Gulbenkian sob a luz desta Missa, da qual tem um entendimento íntimo e profundo.
