HAYDN Die Schöpfung (The Creation)
From wriggling worms to mighty whales, and dazzling starlight to the
inky ocean depths, Haydn’s Creation is a jubilant celebration of the
wonders of the natural world, and of humankind’s place within it.
In exhilarating choruses and intimate arias, The Creation charts seven
days of intense invention from churning chaos to blazing light, in an
expression of hope, optimism and spirituality that’s warm and
resonant – whatever your personal beliefs.
Maxim Emelyanychev, widely respected for the rare power and energy he
brings to period performances, conducts the combined forces of the SCO
and the SCO Chorus in Haydn’s life-affirming choral masterpiece.
