Joseph Haydn's oratorio "The Creation" depicts in three parts, based on the Book of Genesis, the creation of heaven, earth, and all living creatures. The spirit of the late 18th century shines through Haydn's clear form, expressive text interpretation, and humorous interludes that make the Old Testament texts accessible to listeners.
The closing concert at Kaiserdom Speyer will be performed by:
Annemarie Pfahler, soprano
Sebastian Hübner, tenor
Matthias Horn, bass
Girls' Choir at Speyer Cathedral
Speyer Cathedral Boys
Speyer Cathedral Choir
Baroque Orchestra L'arpa festante
Joachim Weller, conductor
