Frank Martin's "In terra pax & Les quatre éléments" is a captivating exploration of choral and orchestral music, released on April 1, 1996, under the Chandos label. This album showcases Martin's mastery of composition, blending profound spiritual themes with intricate musical structures.
The album is divided into two main works. "Les quatre éléments" is a four-movement suite, each movement representing one of the classical elements: earth, water, air, and fire. This piece is a testament to Martin's ability to evoke natural imagery and elemental forces through music.
The second part of the album, "In terra pax," is a profound and moving oratorio that delves into themes of peace, suffering, and redemption. The text is drawn from various sources, including the Bible and other spiritual writings, and is performed with great depth and emotion by the London Philharmonic Orchestra and soloists such as Della Jones, under the direction of Matthias Bamert.
With a duration of just over an hour, this album offers a rich and immersive listening experience. Frank Martin's unique compositional style, characterized by its blend of modernist techniques and deeply felt emotional expression, makes this album a standout in the classical music repertoire. Whether you are a longtime fan of choral music or a newcomer to the genre, this album is sure to leave a lasting impression.
