Product Details

Description

This cantata uses texts by Giordano Bruno who was burned as a heretic in Rome around 1600. His poetic, pictographic and hymnic language is perfect for a composer like Hans Werner Henze. The six parts are linked in a baroque manner with ritornells and follow the architecture of the text in a free form.
