Karajan conducts Beethoven’s “Missa solemnis” in Salzburg

Beethoven’s Missa solemnis is one of the most impressive sacred compositions there is, in which religious affirmation, virtuosic vocal music and a large-scale symphonic framework combine to create a powerful whole. In this live 1979 recording from Salzburg, Herbert von Karajan, who was deeply rooted in the Christian faith, realises a performance which is as emotional as it is powerful.

Herbert von Karajan’s fascinating artistic concept included combining the subjective expressiveness of Wilhelm Furtwängler with the strict objectivity of Arturo Toscanini. In other respects, too, the stylistic profile of the conductor seemed to consist of the balance of opposites: magnificent sound and transparency, tonal beauty and precise articulation. As markedly as Karajan made reference to role models and existing trends, he was at the same time a singular phenomenon in the music world of the 20th century. In some respects, Adorno’s remark that the conductor was the “genius of the economic miracle” is difficult to dismiss. It could be seen, for example, in his ostentatious display of personal wealth, the millions of recordings sold, and in his active contribution to the development of sound engineering. However, his constant media presence contrasts with his humble approach to the masterpieces of music, and the rock-solid Kapellmeister training he initially received at the opera houses in Ulm and Aachen. Although Karajan was particularly fond of Beethoven, Richard Strauss and Richard Wagner, his versatility as an opera and concert conductor was extremely impressive. His recordings of core works of French Modernism and the Second Viennese School, for example, still set standards today. Karajan’s unprecedented achievements as chief conductor of the Berliner Philharmoniker included the founding of the Salzburg Easter Festival and, above all, the opening of Hans Scharoun's Philharmonie, tailored precisely to his ideas. Meanwhile, in Karajan’s final years of life, conflicts began to accumulate, leading the conductor to cancel his contract with the orchestra just a few months before his death. Nevertheless, the more than 30-year-long artistic partnership of the Berliner Philharmoniker and Herbert von Karajan represents an unusually productive epoch in the history of musical interpretation that has a lasting effect right up to the present.

“I will seize fate by the throat; it will never bend me completely to its will,” wrote Ludwig van Beethoven during a major life crisis. And in fact, no other music so strongly expresses the powers that threaten mankind as Beethoven’s works; at the same time, they mobilise the resilience of the individual. It is from this tension that the art of the last of the First Viennese School derives its unmistakable radicalism to this day. Beethoven, a contemporary of the French Revolution and its consequences, went down in history not least as the creator of humanism in musical form. Beethoven, who was born in Bonn but made Vienna his home, created musical milestones with his only opera, Fidelio, and his Missa Solemnis, but the focus of his work is in the genres of the symphony, the solo concerto, the string quartet and the piano sonata. He took up the traditional forms of his predecessors Haydn and Mozart, perfected them, and with his late work, in which Bach’s polyphonic music also finds echoes, he looks ahead far into the future. Beethoven has always been part of the core repertoire of the Berliner Philharmoniker. Performances by Hans von Bülow and Wilhelm Furtwängler are legendary. Herbert von Karajan, Fürtwängler’s successor as chief conductor of the orchestra, played all of Beethoven’s symphonies several times, as did Claudio Abbado and Sir Simon Rattle. Both of the latter presented internationally acclaimed cycles at the end of their tenures. The interpretations of all three conductors are fortunately documented in their entirety in sound and video recordings.
