Beethoven: Missa solemnis | Fabio Luisi, Staatskapelle Dresden, Chorus of the Sächsische Staatsoper

The Frauenkirche (Church of Our Lady) with its high dome visible from afar is considered the landmark of the city of Dresden in Saxony. In the Second World War, this striking church was destroyed by bombs in February 1945 and existed for decades only as a ruin. From 1993 to 2005 it was rebuilt using the remaining rubble. Its reconstruction is a symbol of hope and reconciliation - and the magnificent church building with its unique blend of old and new bricks is intended to keep the memory of history alive.
A work as festive as it is grand was chosen for the reopening concert. The Missa solemnis by Ludwig van Beethoven (1770 - 1827). The ‘Solemn Mass’ is considered one of the composer’s most important works, and Beethoven himself even called it his greatest work on several occasions. The Mass for four soloists, choir, orchestra and orgue in D major, Op. 123 was composed between 1819 and 1823, after Beethoven had already studied in detail the Latin text of the Mass and its various settings by other composers. The Missa solemnis reflects Beethoven’s struggle with religion and has a clearly confessional character. The individual parts of the mass are divided into five major compositional sections, giving the ‘Great Mass’ an almost symphonic aspect. This famous piece of church music demands a great deal from the vocal soloists, the choir and the large orchestra.

I have sang Quoniam Tu Solus. I have to admit it is one of the highest pieces I have ever had to sing. Beethoven shoots for the stars. Beautiful rendition!
PHEW!!! I can't add to anything that's already been said except to give praises to our Father for giving us Beethoven!!!

It wasn’t OUR father, James, it was HIS father Johann van Beethoven. Or King Frederick William II of Prussia, depending on which narrative, you follow. But it was clearly Johann, whether as biological or foster father, whom we have to thank for the composer Ludwig van B. Johann recognised the musical talent of the young lad and made sure he received intensive instruction in Music and composition from excellent teachers. So, no Big Man in the Sky, but, just possibly, a Hohenzollern prince sowing some wild oats. Or plain Herr Johann van Beethoven sired the genius considered one of the most important composers of all time.

I am an old guy, I love all kinds of music. Fortunately I heard bits and pieces, and even attended some concerts were Beethoven was performed, ever since my childhood. Today, I was musically and spiritually “blown away.” For whatever reason I have not heard, nor even heard of, Missa solemnis! I saw this listing, put it on, and laid down. I began placing all my attention (to the best of my abilities), on each instrument, and each voice, and each melodic line. What a journey, what a tour de force! Yes, I agree with Beethoven, this is his greatest work. Probably the greatest musical composition I have ever heard! May we all be so blessed to hear and to comprehend the power and the Beauty, of Missa solemnis; and feel the power and the Beauty that is Life.

Once The Missa gets you it has you for life. You can't get away LOL So much beauty and spirit in this piece. I still find myself humming a tune some times and have to think 'where did that come from' and it is from the Agnus Dei or some other part of The Missa Solemnis. There is a LOT here, I hope it gets you like it did me. An absolute pinnacle of music that does not get the respect and play it deserves but such is life when too many people have the same attention span as a goldfish.

I was really in awe of this composition, so i researched about Missa Solemnis and when Beethoven started becoming deaf. He was fully deaf in 1819, when he started composing this (1819-1823). A deaf man composing one of the greatest masses ever written, if not the greatest. IMO, this is a work of God. 🥰 Thank you, Mr. Beethoven.
Großartige Solisten, die endlich mal - durchweg - diese Bezeichnung verdienen! Tolle Chöre, super Orchester.
The reopening of the Frauenkirchen was a special event. And for the first concert, an extraordinary composer and his extraordinary work were chosen. There are several extraordinary sacred music´s works composed by other famous composers as well. But Beethoven's Missa Solemnis is also a unique work. Beautiful melodically and in content. It has accompanied me throughout my life since his first hearing in the St. Vitus Church in Prague. For me, what is particularly touching about it is that it seems to reflect the entire dramatic life of Beethoven. His struggle for love, for faith, for understanding the world and the sense of life. The music of his Missa Solemnis expresses this with its depth and range of expression, from moments of dramatic search, through moments of reflection, joy and suffering to a magnificent meeting with God in the heavens and resting in final peace... dona nobis pacem. May our lives also reach such peace in Eternity in due time

Very true. A God gifted genius.. !!! Very touching music, and you can actually feel the pain, (emotional, spiritual and physical), that he had to endure in his journey towards reaching the summit in his career and life as a great composer, against all odds. He suffered huge maltreatment by those who failed to pay him for all his great, incomparable commissioned works and music services in breach of legal contracts. Beethoven's music and legacy will live forever. RIP genius of geniuses, Ludwig van Beethoven. A true advocate of Peace, Human Dignity & Justice!!

An excellent performance, excitingly conducted and beautifully sung in a magnificent setting. The sonics are superb, including the way they miked the violin soloist in the Sanctus. Often it's virtually inaudible.
Una obra cumbre de la historia de la música sinfónica coral, creada por el sordo que tuvo los mejores oídos para componer una música inmortal! El la consideró una de sus obras más reveladoras de su genio musical!

The Dona Nobis Pacem near the end of the Agnus Dei is probably Beethoven's finest piece of work. Many thanks to the performers, to the engineers responsible for reopening the Frauenkirche, and to the people of Dresden.

What a magnificent and moving performance , worthy of Beethoven’s beseeching the heavens, finally, to grant us peace. Bravos to the chorus, orchestra, soloists and maestro Luisi, with whom I am unfamiliar, but who I would like hear more from. A word about the acoustics: they seemed really good when I was at a concert in-the frauenkirke a couple of years ago, and this video confirms that impression,which sort of surprises me, given the unique shape of the frauenkirke.
