Italy – The sun-kissed land in southern Europe has always been considered the quintessence of art and culture. As in painting, sculpture, and architecture, in the history of music, too, many a decisive innovation came from Italy. In the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, it was above all Venice that, as the center of music cultivation, attracted young composers from throughout the world, who wanted to perfect their artistic skills there. Thus, in 1609, Heinrich Schütz, too, traveled to the city on the lagoon for the first time, a visit that was to be decisive for his further life and compositional work. The new CD “Make a joyful noise unto the Lord” is dedicated to Italy’s formative influence during the various epochs of Schütz’s creative work: starting with a piece from the Italian Madrigals, which Schütz wrote after his studies with Giovanni Gabrieli, through the double-choir psalm concerto “Ich danke dem Herrn von ganzem Herzen” from the Psalmen Davids, the famous Gloria à 7 by Claudio Monteverdi, whom Schütz visited in 1628, to the piece “Jauchzet dem Herren alle Welt,” which provided the title of this CD, from Schütz’s Opus ultimum, the “Schwanengesang” (“Swan Song”).
