Angular Austere Brooding Devotional Gloomy Melancholy Serious Somber Sparse. Wolfgang Rihm, Luigi Nono: Passion Texts. 1. Tristis est anima mea. Wolfgang Rihm. 3. 2. Ecce vidimus eum. 4. Velum templi scissum est. 5. Tenebrae factae sunt. 6. Caligaverunt oculi mei. 7. Recessit pastor noster. 8. Aestimatus sum. 9. ¿Donde estas, hermano?, for 2 sopranos, mezzo-soprano and contralto.

Nonos late style, a world of sharply-etched, strikingly sparse sound forms set against a background of silence, made a deep impression on his younger colleague, whose works from the mid-1980s onwards show the clear imprint of the Italian masters visionary clarity. This recording of works for differing ensembles of solo voices shows another trait the two hold in common: a passionate engagement with their fellow humanbeings, giving rise to a music of searing and shocking directness

Luigi Nono, Wolfgang Rihm.

Wolfgang Rihm has always acknowledged the importance of Luigi Nono’s music in the development of his own style. That influence comes across strikingly in this serenely beautiful sequence of unaccompanied choral pieces that conductor James Weeks and Exaudi put together. The substantial set of Seven Passion Texts, completed in 2006, are more conventional, and sometimes almost Straussian in their harmonic richness. Yet it’s the two miniatures by Nono himself that make the strongest impression – the austere, highly wrought Sarà Dolce Tacere to a text by Cesare Pavese, and the fragile exquisiteness of ¿Donde estas, hermano? for four female voices, which is a splinter from the creative block that produced Nono’s final masterpiece, Prometeo.

2. No. Tristis est anima mea Wolfgang Rihm; EXAUDI; James Weeks. Ecce vidimus eum Wolfgang Rihm; EXAUDI; James Weeks. Velum templi scissum est Wolfgang Rihm; EXAUDI; James Weeks. Tenebrae factae sunt Wolfgang Rihm; EXAUDI; James Weeks. EXAUDI's recording of works for differing ensembles of solo voices displays a trait composers Luigi Nono and Wolfgang Rihme hold in common: a passionate engagement with their fellow human beings, giving rise to this music of searing and shocking directness. Recorded over a period of five years, it was a labour of love for EXAUDI and its director James Weeks, featuring music that has been part of the vocal ensemble’s lifeblood since its foundation, each performance thoroughly embedded in heart and voice.

Wolfgang Rihm Wolfgang Rihm. Born in Venice, Italy, Nono was a member of a wealthy artistic family, and his grandfather was a notable painter.
