Description
Christus am Ölberge (Christ on the Mount of Olives), Op. 85 is Ludwig van Beethoven's (1770-1827) only oratorio. It is a unique approach to the story of Jesus Christ as it cuts off before the Crucifixion and Resurrection, making instead a much more personal portrayal of Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane, struggling with his own emotional turmoil before ultimately acccepting his fate. While the complete oratorio is among Beethoven's most rarely performed works, the finale chorus Welten singen Dank und Ehre, frequently referred to as the Hallelujah Chorus, has become very popular around the globe and frequently performed by church, high school, college, and professional choirs. Choral score with piano reduction. This choral score has been translated to English by John Troutbeck. Reprint edition.
