Zurich Opera Orchestra

A delicate thread stretching across two centuries of music: this is the promise of a program spanning from the Enlightenment to Prokofiev. Soprano Regula Mühlemann joins the Zurich Opera Orchestra under the baton of its music director Gianandrea Noseda.

What is music, if not the soundtrack of life — even unto death? Vivaldi’s Sinfonia “Al Santo Sepolcro” evokes prayer at the holy sepulchre and the austerity of Lent. Pergolesi’s Stabat Mater depicts the Virgin’s sorrowful prayer at the foot of the Cross. Fifty years later, Haydn revisits the same episode in his Seven Last Words of Christ on the Cross, producing multiple versions, from string quartet to oratorio. Still under the aegis of the Virgin, Mozart’s motet Exsultate, jubilate celebrates the joy of blessed souls. With Romeo and Juliet, Prokofiev retains the immediate accessibility inherited from the Classical masters, channelling Shakespeare’s immortal tale of star-crossed lovers into radiant energy.
