Puccini: Messa di Gloria ∙ hr-Sinfonieorchester ∙ MDR Rundfunkchor ∙ Solisten ∙ Eliahu Inbal 

This is the first time that I heard this Puccini masterpiece. I confess that I was impressed by the work magnificent, not only for the harmony but also for the force it transmits in the context of the religious environment. The soloists, choir, orchestration and maestro are amazing. Once more, gloria to Puccini and his fantastic music.

I am missing hundreds (maybe thousands) of "Likes" to enjoy this concert over and over again. Thank you very much for sharing it.

Che onore poter ascoltare, suonare e cantare i capolavori di Maestri come Puccini! Meravigliosi! 👏👏👏

Questo capolavoro non smentisce la grandezza dell'arte di Puccini, è semplicemente sublime; l'esecuzione perfetta, lode al coro, ai solisti, all'orchestra. L'ascolto è una carezza all'anima.

It's a joy to see veteran Inbal in top form, in reunion with his former orchestra. Inbal is a superb conductor, always finding the right dynamics in everything he conducts. I strongly recommend his recent performances with the Orquesta Sinfonica de Galicia, available on you tube.

Je suis très enthousiaste : tout est magnifique : l'orchestre, les choeurs, les solistes !!!Bravo et merci !!!!

Puccini is one of the best composer. His music is very sweet and dramatic.🎉

Superb interpretation all round, magnifecent choir❤

Superbe oeuvré, majestueuse et lyrique très bien interprété, félicitations !!!!

.meravigliosa, anni anni di lavoro. Grazie Maestro

Congratulations to Maestro Inbal, the Sinfonieorchester and MDR Rundfunkchor, and soloists. Superb and moving rendition!

00:39 Kyrie 06:06 Gloria [10:23 Gratias agimus tibi] 24:25 Credo 37:55 Sanctus e Benedictus [39:25 Benedictus] 41:49 Agnus Dei

Da corista ci dico che Puccini si e proprio divertito...... bravi tutti

Vraiment BEAU et SUBLIME !!!

Thank you yet again, all who brought this wonderful musical blessing to our doors across all humanity.

Un' opera dolce e potente allo stesso tempo bravi tutti

Harika bu müzik uykum geliyor..Bir an hayal ettim operaya gittiğimi ve uykuya daldığımi burnum tikaniksa horladigimi söyledi annem..eyvah nasıl bir kabusa dönüşür..😁müzik gerçekten harika bana çocukken seyrettiğim muzikalleri hatırlattı ve ben de onlar gibi yapmaya çalışırdım 😊

Wunderschönes Werk und exzellente Aufführung! Großes Lob an alle Beteiligten!

como toda la obra de Puccini; magistral. Novedosa.

Excellent concert 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🎵🎶🎵👏👏👏👏👏

What a masterpiece again and a fabolus performance .

Прекрасное исполнение ) какая красота)

Большое спасибо великолепному Франкфуртскому оркестру!

Da fehlen mir die Worte: das war einfach herrlich! Bravo maestro!

Observo atónito que hay 54 personas a las que no gusta esta magnífica inerpretación de la Messa di Gloria de Puccini. Hay dos posibilidades: que se crean la creme de la creme de la crítica musical o que no tengan la menor idea de música. Me inclino por esta última

Magnificent! I don't think it's often performed (?) Bravi tutti!!!

Loved the conducting and performance!

Man merkt, dass Puccini aus einer Musikerfamilie stammte. Wunderbar komponiert, wahrscheinlich haben ihm seinen Erfahrungen als Organist in der Jugend sehr inspiriert.

I like best the part which is similar to the "choir of prisoners" written by Verdi in "Nabucco" !!!❤

THIS melodyy👌👌👌Comparısıon~You are Perfect !!!👏💙

Wunderschöne Musik und Aufführung!

Me trae recuerdos del director Werner Paf en Lima dirigiendo un grupo de 120 coreautas de diferentes países en el Teatro Segura con la Orquesta Sinfónica Nacional organizado por el APCH y su coro, fue una experiencia hermosa y única.

I am grateful that Maestro Inbal kept to the score as written. The first time I heard this magnificent work was when our university chorus performed it. I loved it. I was in a performance of it in a community chorus some years later. There were some unnecessary rough spots. I tried to get the conductor to focus the singers to sing the score as it was written. No one wanted to take the time. This performance comes closer to the way we did in college.

Preciosa versión. Desde Santiago de Chile.

Magnificent masterpiece!

Klare und saubere Aufführung dieser wunderschönen Messe mit himmlischen Stimmen des ganzen Chors und perfekt kontrollierten Stimmen aller Solisten. Die zurückgehaltene Orchesterbegleitung ist auch ausgezeichnet. Echt glorreich!

magnífica obra de Puccini. Un oratorio distinto. Puccini siempre será el más grande creador musical.

GRAZIE , non conoscevo questo aspetto di PUCCINI et sono Italiano .

Thank you.

16:49 It's beautiful ♥

Sublime!

41:50 from heaven...

I sang this work in college and have loved it since. Magnificent performance.

언제 들어도 좋다..

Gracias por compartir !!!!

oeuvre vocale superbe

31:49 Favorite part

Belissima.

Deizioso

Listening first time.

mooie uitvoering van de Messa di Gloria......wij mogen hem in december uitvoeren met het KLM-orkest in Haarlem, Lelystad en Nijkerk

! Puccini !!, sin más

Whaaaaa😍😭

Beautiful, but to separate deprecatio-nem is not right. I sang this Messa in two different venues: once with my college's performance and one with a community choir's performance. Both kept to the way the score was written. I think it's better if the conductor plays it the way it is written.

Hermoso

More after listening a few times: I stand by my praise but the Kyrie is too staccato- I think that section should have been performed with more legato. Otherwise bravissimo.

13:55 Gloria II

😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

Bonita obra de puccini, cuando fui estudiante de música en la Escuela Nacional de Música el Maestro de Coros de apellido Ávila montó esa obra con sus alumnos incluyendome y nos presentamos en varias Escuelas. Sólo estábamos acompañados por el Piano. El tenor no recuerdo su nombre pero sólo se que era profesional y el Bajo a falta de un profesional un alumno hizo esa parte. Saludos

Not bad music from a guy who liked beautiful women (not his wife) and fast cars. Fyi the Puccini line ended a few years ago with the death of his great great grand niece.

wonderful music and great performance. Any idea where I can find Lyrics of the Agnus Dei?

Ma... perché Messa di Gloria? E' una messa completa, con Credo, Sanctus, Benedictus e Agnus...

Tenho o CD,e estou adaptando no celulsr.

31:50 et resurrexit 🤯🤯

Insgesamt n bisschen leise, wirkt alles irgendwie gedämpft.

I want to conduct you. Maybe, some day

An opera in religious clothing! It’s interesting but one cannot deny that Puccini’s composition technique wasn’t yet fully developed…

The soloist is very good but I think the Incarnatus ought to be sung by a soprano: Incarnatus ex Maria Virgine - from the Virgin Mary.

(Proceed with caution, doesn't exactly match the work, some lines are left out.) 0:39 Kyrie Kyrie eleison. Christe eleison. Kyrie eleison. Lord, have mercy. Christ, have mercy. Lord, have mercy. 6:06 Gloria Gloria in excelsis Deo. Et in terra pax hominibus bonæ voluntatis. Glory be to God in the highest. And in earth peace to men of good will. Laudamus te; benedicimus te; adoramus te; glorificamus te. Gratias agimus tibi propter magnam gloriam tuam. We praise Thee; we bless Thee; we worship Thee; we glorify Thee. We give thanks to Thee for Thy great glory. Domine Deus, Rex coelestis, Deus Pater omnipotens. Domine Fili unigenite Jesu Christe. Domine Deus, Agnus Dei, Filius Patris. O Lord God, Heavenly King, God the Father Almighty. O Lord Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son. Lord God, Lamb of God, Son of the Father. Qui tollis peccata mundi, miserere nobis. Qui tollis peccata mundi, suscipe deprecationem nostram. Qui sedes ad dextram Patris, O miserere nobis. Thou that takest away the sins of the world, have mercy upon us. Thou that takest away the sins of the world, receive our prayer. Thou that sittest at the right hand of the Father, have mercy upon us. Quoniam tu solus Sanctus, tu solus Dominus, tu solus Altissimus, Jesu Christe. Cum Sancto Spiritu in gloria Dei Patris. Amen. For thou only art holy, thou only art the Lord, thou only art the most high, Jesus Christ. Together with the Holy Ghost in the glory of God the Father. Amen. 24:25 Credo Credo in unum Deum; Patrem omnipotentem, factorem coeli et terrae, visibilium omnium et invisibilium. I believe in one God; the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, and of all things visible and invisible. Credo in unum Dominum Jesum Christum, Filium Dei unigenitum, Et ex Patre natum ante omnia sæcula. Deum de Deo, lumen de lumine, Deum verum de Deo vero, Genitum non factum, consubstantialem Patri: And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God, begotten of the Father before all worlds; God of God, light of light, true God of true God, begotten not made; being of one substance with the Father, per quem omnia facta sunt. Qui propter nos homines, et propter nostram salutem descendit de coelis. Et incarnatus est de Spiritu Sancto ex Maria Virgine: et homo factus est. by Whom all things were made. Who for us men and for our salvation descended from heaven; and was incarnate by the Holy Ghost, of the Virgin Mary, and was made man. Crucifixus etiam pro nobis sub Pontio Pilato, passus et sepultus est. Et resurrexit tertia die secundum Scripturas. He was crucified also for us, suffered under Pontius Pilate, and was buried. And on the third day He rose again according to the Scriptures: Et ascendit in coelum: sedet ad dexteram Patris. Et iterum venturus est cum gloria, judicare vivos et mortuos: cujus regni non erit finis. and ascended into heaven. He sitteth at the right hand of the Father; and He shall come again with glory to judge the living and the dead; and His kingdom shall have no end. Credo in Spiritum Sanctum, Dominum, et vivificantem: qui ex Patre Filioque procedit. Qui cum Patre et Filio simul adoratur et conglorificatur: qui locutus est per Prophetas. believe in the Holy Ghost, the Lord and giver of life, Who prodeedeth from the Father and the Son, Who with the Father and the Son together is worshipped and glorified; as it was told by the Prophets. Credo in unam sanctam catholicam et apostolicam Ecclesiam. Confiteor unum baptisma, in remissionem peccatorum. Et expecto resurrectionem mortuorum et vitam venturi sæculi. Amen. And I believe in one holy catholic and apostolic Church. I acknowledge one baptism for the remission of sins. And I await the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come. Amen. 37:55 Sanctus and Benedictus Sanctus, Sanctus, Sanctus, Dominus Deus Sabaoth. Pleni sunt coeli et terra gloria tua. Osanna in excelsis. Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God of Hosts. Heaven and earth are full of Thy glory. Hosanna in the highest. [39:25 Benedictus] Benedictus qui venit in nomine Domini. Osanna in excelsis. Blessed is He that cometh in the name of the Lord. Hosanna in the highest. 41:49 Agnus Dei Agnus Dei, qui tollis peccata mundi, miserere nobis. Agnus Dei. Dona nobis pacem. Lamb of God, Who takest away the sins of the world, have mercy upon us. Lamb of God. Grant us peace.

This Puccini Mess is a little bit Kitsch

Respekt vor der Komposition. Aber doch recht opernhaft. Dadurch recht langatmig in der Ausführung. Dennoch sind Solisten, Chor und Orchester gut aufeinander eingespielt.

Chef peu à l'aise. Manque d'unité dramatique

A

Forse non un capolavoro ma una bella prova d’Autore si ,c’è’ tutto Puccini dentro .Mi e’ sembrata molto curata ed equilibrata l’esecuzione di Coro e Orchestra e i solisti ,sicuramente una direzione di esperienza .Ma il pubblico è’ quello che mi ha stupito di più’ ,dire tiepido e’un eufemismo ……

Gran Dio mio, das soll Puccini sein? Das war aber ein Ausrutscher!

A parte le prime battute, veramente ispirate, che fanno rimembrare le ultime due Messe di Schubert, l'intera Messa è opera acerba, ovviamente giovanile e poco ispirata, dove il connubio tra testo e musica dovrebbe essere come quello di un guanto con la mano. Non la ho ascoltata tutta, mi sono arrestato al Sanctus, perché non ne potevo proprio più.
