The Creation

Approved

Det Kongelige Danske Musikkonservatorium (The Royal Danish Acade

The creation is Haydn's last great masterpiece. The enormous oratorio about the beginning of the world is the culmination of the Viennese classical style of the 18th century and the ideas of the Enlightenment. Phillip Faber redeems the image-creating musical instruments from the conductor's podium - with the addition of two large boys' choirs .

Joseph Haydn was at the peak of his career when, in 1798, he composed his impressive oratorio on the creation of the world. The first performance was like a modern pop concert - and a horde of police officers had to keep wild fans from the celebrated composer.

The libretto for Creation is taken from the Bible's book of Genesis and from the British poet John Milton's Paradise Lost . And the music is not just catchy. It is also typical of the Age of Enlightenment. Man has come to the center, and next to God, our reason has now also been accepted as what must keep us on the right course. The light that breaks forth so brightly on the first day is a parallel to the triumph of the Enlightenment over the Dark Ages. God has created a perfect world, and now we finally understand the system in all its glory.

At the forefront of all the glory is Phillip Faber, who – in addition to being a popular TV host and composer – is a competent conductor. The choirs are talented young voices from no less than both Roskilde Cathedral's Boys' Choir and Herning Church's Boys' Choir.

English

Skabelsen er Haydns sidste store mesterværk. Det enorme oratorium om verdens begyndelse er kulminationen på 1700-tallets wienerklassiske stil og Oplysningstidens tankegods. Phillip Faber forløser de billedskabende musikalske virkemidler fra dirigentpodiet – tilsat hele to store drengekor.

Joseph Haydn var på toppen af sin karriere, da han i 1798 komponerede sit imponerende oratorium om verdens skabelse. Førsteopførelsen blev som en moderne popkoncert – og en horde af politibetjente måtte holde ellevilde fans fra den feterede komponist.

Librettoen til Skabelsen er hentet fra Biblens 1. Mose­ bog og fra den britiske digter John Miltons Paradise Lost (Det tabte Paradis). Og musikken er ikke blot iøre­faldende. Den er også typisk for Oplysningstiden. Mennesket er kommet i centrum, og ved siden af Gud er vores fornuft nu også blevet accepteret som det, der skal holde os på rette kurs. Lyset, der bryder så stærkt frem på førstedagen, er en paral­lel til Oplysningstidens triumf over den mørke Middelalder. Gud har skabt en perfekt verden, og nu forstår vi endelig systemet i al dets glans.

I front for hele herligheden står Phillip Faber, der – udover at være en populær tv­-vært og komponist – er en kompetent dirigent. Korene er talentfulde unge stemmer fra intet mindre end både Roskilde Domkirkes Drengekor og Herning Kirkes Drengekor.
