Product description

Immerse yourself in the profound and dramatic world of Franz Schmidt's "Das Buch mit sieben Siegeln" (The Book with Seven Seals), a monumental oratorio that brings to life the apocalyptic visions of the Book of Revelation. Composed by the Austrian late-Romantic master Franz Schmidt, this work is a testament to his musical genius and remains one of the most significant choral-orchestral compositions of the early 20th century.

Recorded live and released by Oehms Classics in 2016, this album spans nearly two hours and features the powerful performances of the Niederösterreichisches Tonkünstlerorchester and the Grazer Domchor, conducted by the esteemed Peter Barthelmes. The orchestration is rich and expansive, blending the grandeur of the orchestra with the ethereal beauty of the choir, creating a soundscape that is both awe-inspiring and deeply moving.

The album is divided into two main parts, each exploring different aspects of the apocalyptic narrative. The Prologue sets the stage with its solemn and majestic tones, while the first part delves into the opening of the seven seals, each revealing new visions and prophecies. The second part continues the journey through the apocalypse, culminating in a powerful and triumphant finale.

Franz Schmidt's compositional style is marked by its dramatic intensity and rich harmonic language, which is fully on display in this work. The interplay between the soloists, choir, and orchestra is masterfully crafted, making "Das Buch mit sieben Siegeln" a captivating listening experience from start to finish.

Whether you are a fan of choral music, orchestral works, or simply appreciate the grandeur of classical composition, this album offers a profound and engaging exploration of one of the most dramatic narratives in religious literature. Experience the power and beauty of Franz Schmidt's vision as it comes to life in this remarkable recording.

About Franz Schmidt

Franz Schmidt, born in Bratislava in 1874, was an Austrian composer, cellist, and pianist whose life and work bridged the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the early 20th century. A pupil of the renowned Leschetizky and Bruckner, Schmidt's musical journey began as a cellist in the Vienna Court Opera. His compositions, deeply rooted in chamber music, reflect his profound understanding of both performance and composition. Schmidt's Symphony No. 2, premiered in 1913, remains a staple in the Vienna Philharmonic's repertoire, showcasing his enduring influence. As Director and later Rector of the Vienna Conservatory from 1925 to 1937, Schmidt's legacy extends beyond his compositions to his significant contributions to music education. His work offers a rich, immersive experience, inviting audiences to explore the depths of his musical vision.
