​Messe solemnelle (1811)

Live Concert painting

Wedneday 2nd October 2019, Barbican Hall, London
Until this night, neglected Czech composer Jan Ladislav Dussek's Mass in G  major  had not been heard for more than 200 years. Richard Egarr, AAM director and conductor, carefully retrieved Dussek's score from the library of Florence conservatoire and revived it for performance at the Barbican. Along with the audience I was very fortunate to be the first to hear - and certainly the first to paint! - as it was performed and heard for the first time since 1811. ​

​An eccentric character, musically and personally, 
Dussek's seldom heard Mass, is simultaneously a prayer of love, of piety and of peace, and a musical experiment ahead of its time. A work of great piety 'with excursions' - or so I came to think of it - the rich sonority and dual-textures of Dussek's Mass accompanied me for many weeks after the live concert. A rather volatile relationship of fugue and flight ensued which may yet continue further. (ES 2020)
