Beethoven: Christ On The Mount of Olives Christus Am Ölberge

Description

Composed in 1803, while Beethoven was also writing the "Eroica" Symphony, Christ on the Mount of Olives is the composer’s only oratorio, combining the emotional power of his later Missa Solemnis with the drama of a Bach Passion. Featuring orchestra, choir, and soloists, it tells the story of Jesus' prayer and arrest in the Garden of Gethsemane and also reflects the emotional pressure Beethoven was under at the time. This recording by Sir Simon Rattle, featuring renowned singers Elsa Dreisig, Pavol Breslik, and David Soar, was made during the celebration of Beethoven's 250th anniversary by the London Symphony Orchestra.
