Description

Presented by Ars Lyrica Houston 

From the rich legacy of psalm settings, our season finale juxtaposes music from the Jewish and Christian traditions. In convertendo (Psalm 126) from the operatic master Jean-Philippe Rameau infuses the psalmist's words with flair and passion, while companion pieces by Salamone Rossi and J.S. Bach infuse psalm texts with sonorous counterpoint.

On the program:

Psalm settings and sonatas by Salamone Rossi

J.J. Fux, Le dolcezze et l’amerezze della notte

J.S. Bach, Lobe de Herrn (Psalm 117)

Buxtehude, Domine salvum, fac regem (Psalm 19)

Featuring:
