Benjamin Britten’s “War Requiem” is one of the most fascinating and impressive musical works of the 20th century. It is the largest and most important anti-war composition ever. It requires well over 200 participants, divided into a large choir, a boys’ choir, a large symphony orchestra and a chamber orchestra as well as three soloists. It was commissioned in 1962 for the celebrations to mark the consecration of the rebuilt Coventry Cathedral, which had been destroyed by German aerial bombs on the night of November 14\/15, 1940. The corruption of war on the one hand and the question of forgiveness on the other are the central themes of the work, which are presented with great tonal richness. The text is based on the Latin Mass for the Dead and anti-war poems by the young English poet Wilfred Owen, who wrote them during the First World War, which he fell victim to a few days before its end. After 25 years, the work was performed again in Osnabr\u00fcck<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 1940, the French composer Andr\u00e9 Jolivet created a “Messe pour le Jour de la Paix” – a mass for the day of peace. It was immediately preceded by the Compi\u00e8gne Armistice of 22 June, which sealed the occupation of France by Nazi Germany. Jolivet longed for a return to peace, for which he created his Mass. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":7862,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9,93,44,8],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7908","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-musica-pro-pace","category-musica-pro-pace-en","category-nicht-kategorisiert-en","category-unkategorisiert","generate-columns","tablet-grid-50","mobile-grid-100","grid-parent","grid-50"],"wps_subtitle":"\u201eDona nobis pacem\u201c \u2013 Friedensmusik f\u00fcr 1945","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ofg.uni-osnabrueck.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7908","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ofg.uni-osnabrueck.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ofg.uni-osnabrueck.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ofg.uni-osnabrueck.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ofg.uni-osnabrueck.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7908"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.ofg.uni-osnabrueck.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7908\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":13145,"href":"https:\/\/www.ofg.uni-osnabrueck.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7908\/revisions\/13145"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ofg.uni-osnabrueck.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7862"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ofg.uni-osnabrueck.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7908"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ofg.uni-osnabrueck.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7908"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ofg.uni-osnabrueck.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7908"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
