About

Jan van Gilse’s Lebensmesse was performed at the Muziek Centrum Vredenburg in Utrecht in May 2013, and it is now our pleasure finally to be able to present to you this impressive oratorio based on a poem by Richard Dehmel and scored for four soloists, two choirs, and orchestra on this CD release forming part of our extensive van Gilse edition.

December 2016

Admirers of Markus Stenz’s Gurrelieder will recognise the similar qualities of textural care and intensity he brings to the proceedings here – beautifully detailed playing and an energy that pulls you in, despite the work’s narrative awkwardness. The choirs blaze away excitingly…Heidi Melton sounds sensual as the Maiden, and Vladimir Baykov makes a very seductive active Eccentric. Not a masterpiece, but fascinating
