about

"Andreas Scholl returns to his repertoire of choice, introducing us to the splendid works of Frantisek Tůma – a little-known Bohemian composer who was a prominent musical figure in the 18th century. Together with the Czech Baroque Ensemble and their conductor Roman Válek, specialists in this repertoire, the counter-tenor here performs several of his emblematic motets and cantatas.

In this atmosphere of the twilight of the Baroque, Andreas Scholl’s voice attains its fullness, embracing Tůma’s splendid invention and intensity of expression - a marvellous musical encounter that reaches its apex in the splendid arias of the Motettum de tempore, the Motetto per ogni Tempo or in the austere but absolute beauty of the chorus Juravit Dominus."

"Andreas Scholl retrouve ici son répertoire de prédilection, en nous ouvrant les portes de l’œuvre splendide de Frantisek Tůma. Compositeur bohémien méconnu issu du Baroque tardif, Tůma compta parmi les grandes figures musicales du XVIIIe siècle à la cour de Vienne, où il était notamment estimé pour sa musique sacrée et son contrepoint grandiose. Aux côtés du Czech Ensemble Baroque et son chef Roman Válek, spécialistes de ce répertoire, Andreas Scholl interprète plusieurs de ses œuvres emblématiques, dont les motets et cantates composés pour la reine Elisabeth-Christine de Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel.

Dans cette atmosphère baroque crépusculaire, le timbre incomparable d’Andreas Scholl trouve la plénitude et embrasse l’invention et l’intensité expressive de Tůma, toute de clair-obscur. Cette formidable rencontre musicale trouve son acmé dans les splendides arias du Motettum de tempore ou du Motetto per ogni Tempo, ou encore le chœur Juravit Dominus, d’une beauté sévère mais absolue."
