The Creation by Uwe Scholz

Overview

Haydn's oratorio The Creation, the first public performance of which took place in 1799 in Vienna's old Burgtheater, is one of the peak works of classical art; it reflects the spirit of Goethe's time - the oneness of man with his world, the reverence for the mighty cosmos of nature, which is considered to have been created by a divine authority and the crowning glory of which man appears.
