Product Description
Chronique amazon.fr
Pour cette œuvre, Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach a travaillé en étroite collaboration avec le librettiste Wilhelm Ramler, de 1781 à 1787, date de sa publication chez l'éditeur Breitkopf. Une lettre du compositeur témoigne de l'importance que revêt cette partition dans son corpus, qui marque un tournant dans l'évolution de son propre style : une œuvre que Haydn et Beethoven admireront. C'est que La Résurrection et l'Ascension de Jésus est emplie d'airs magnifiques et d'harmonies rugueuses propres à Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach. Le trio de solistes vocaux regroupé autour de Sigiswald Kuijken donne à cet oratorio une "épaisseur" d'une rare densité. --Pierre Guillaume

Marvellous music; stirring performances,
By Gontroppo "Music and Theology Lover" (Bathurst, NSW Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Die Auferstehung Und Himmelfar (Audio CD)
C P E Bach's Resurrection and Ascension of Jesus sounds more like Haydn than his father's music. It is a wonderful, uplifting work which takes up where his father's Passions ended. The work includes recitatives, arias and choruses which tell the story of Christ's resurrection and the discovery of this by the women who came to the tomb, the two people walking on the road to Emmaus who are joined by Jesus and Thomas' discovery that Jesus is really risen from the dead. The choruses are all expressions of confidence in God's promises. One wonderful chorus is heard three times, each time with new words, but always beginning with the word Triumph. The work aroused the admiration of Haydn [who was clearly influenced by it in some of his oratorios], Mozart [who conducted a performance] and Beethoven. You may need to listen to this work a couple of times before the magic starts to work, but trust me: it will!

C.P.E. Bach: Die Auferstehung und Himmelfahrt Jesu,
By Bjorn Viberg - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Die Auferstehung Und Himmelfar (Audio CD)
C.P.E. Bach: Die Auferstehung und Himmelfahrt Jesu is a recording lead by Sigiswald Kuijken who leads La Petite Bande on this Hyperion recording from 2003. The booklet contains 23 pages. Benoît Jaqueim has written liner-notes and the lyrics are available in English and German. The sound is definitely more influenced by that of Haydn then of his father J.S. Bach. Being a devout person the texts speaks right into my heart and soul. Highly recommended indeed. 5/5.
