In Beethoven’s humanistic world, there can be no separating faith in God from faith in Man. The struggle with the concept of the divine, the agonizing dominance of doubt and a redemptive return to a renewed and sincere faith are a few of the driving forces which shape the development of the moving religious drama that unfolds in the Missa Solemnis. This unique and lengthy masterpiece from Beethoven’s late period is conducted by the inspired German maestro Christoph Poppen.
