Clytus Gottwald possessed the special gift of translating the most diverse compositions for solo voice and instrumental accompaniment into a pure, polyphonic choral sound. He was rightly dubbed by music critics the “father” of modern choral singing.
This recording by the Kammerchor Stuttgart under the direction of Frieder Bernius features ten songs by Richard Strauss into which Gottwald breathes a choral soul with seemingly infinite creativity. These are complemented by a stunning 16-part transcription of the “Adagietto” from Gustav Mahler’s 5th Symphony. Listeners are also treated to an original composition, namely Friede auf Erden (Peace on Earth), one of the few choral works of the Second Viennese School, presented here in the year of Arnold Schoenberg’s 150th birthday.
With this program, the Kammerchor Stuttgart once again confirms its position as one of the world’s leading vocal ensembles.
