Når menneskelivet skal begribes med alle dets ubegribeligheder, må vi ofte ty til det ordløse. Samuel Barbers hjerteskærende Adagio for Strings har, siden kompositionen så dagens lys i 1938, været en naturlig musikalsk ledsager ved begivenheder, der har ladet os ordløse tilbage – som f.eks. Einsteins begravelse, mordet på John F. Kennedy eller de verdensomspændende mindehøjtideligheder for ofrene fra World Trade Centers kollaps i 2001. Således danner denne næsten ubegribeligt smukke strygersats det perfekte bagtæppe for Steingrimur Rohloffs War Requiem for kor, orkester og vokalsolister – et værk, der desværre er blevet mere og mere relevant, mens det er blevet skrevet. Teksterne, der er forfattet af dramatiker og instruktør Bent Nørgaard, søger at indkredse krigens væsen til alle tider, men i lyset af de frygtelige begivenheder i Ukraine rækker det desværre ud over det universelle; rekviemmet omhandler krigens arketyper: krigeren, barnet, veteranen, den trøstende og moderen- menneskeroller, vi nu igen dagligt konfronteres med. Med sin sublime orkesterbehandling går den i Danmark bosiddende tysk/islandske komponist til ekstremerne – påvirket af de aktuelle hændelser – i sin afsøgning af krigens mørke og dén skønhed og dét lys, som krigens gru også åbner op for. Eller for at citere Nørgaards tekst: “Salige er de, som sørger/Lad lyset stråle for dem”.

When human life has to be understood with all its incomprehensibility, we often have to resort to the wordless. Samuel Barber's heartbreaking Adagio for Strings has, since the composition saw the light of day in 1938, been a natural musical companion at events that have left us speechless – such as Einstein's funeral, the assassination of John F. Kennedy or the worldwide commemorations for the victims of the collapse of the World Trade Center in 2001. Thus, this almost incomprehensibly beautiful string movement forms the perfect backdrop for Steingrimur Rohloff's War Requiem for choir, orchestra and vocal soloists – a work that unfortunately has become increasingly relevant as it has been written. The texts, written by playwright and director Bent Nørgaard, pincreases to define the nature of war at all times, but in the light of the terrible events in Ukraine, it unfortunately reaches beyond the universal; r the epic deals with the archetypes of war: the warrior, the child, the veteran, the comforter and the mother - human roles that we are now once again confronted with on a daily basis. With his sublime orchestral treatment, the German/Icelandic composer living in Denmark goes to the extremes – influenced by current events – in his exploration of the darkness of war and the beauty and light that the horrors of war also open up. Or to quote Nørgaard's text: "Blessed are those who mourn/Let the light shine for them".
