Antonio Caldara – Magdaléna u nohou Kristových (2010)
An oratorio about the conflict between earthly and heavenly love, with which the Italian composer applied for the position of Kapellmeister at the Viennese court, will be performed in a period style. Recording of the concert from the 2010 St. Wenceslas Music Festival at St. Wenceslas Church in Ostrava. Antonio Caldara was one of the most important composers of oratorios. The main character, Magdalene, is a popular figure in works of art with religious themes. She was identified with the sinner in Luke's Gospel, who after her conversion became one of Jesus' closest companions. In the first part, Mary Magdalene decides whether to choose the path of worldly pleasures or to repent and devote her life to God. In the second part of the oratorio, we find ourselves in the house of the Pharisee, who doubts the sincerity of Magdalene's repentance...
