Franz Lachner Requiem in f

op. 146, 1856

Read and write feedback
The Requiem in F minor op. 146 is the most well-known and most important work by Franz Lachner. The composer, living for a long time in Vienna, developed as a “classicist romantic” composer, who merged classical form, baroque fugue and romantic emotional impact in a very personal style. Lachner’s Requiem shows a clear expression of his admiration for Mozart, although his music differs essentially from Mozart’s. In its content it displays both conservative, backward-looking features and extremely progressive characteristics. While an introverted mood prevails throughout most of the work, the large orchestral ­ensemble reveals its full effect in a few dramatic passages. Because of the work’s size and the scoring it was impossible to use the Requiem in the liturgy. But precisely its performance in a secular “forum” made it one of Lachner’s best known compositions.

    La vie de Franz Lachner (1803–1890) couvre pratiquement tout le 19ème siècle, allant historiquement et musicalement parlant, de l’époque de Beethoven et Schubert, qu’il connaissait tous les deux, jusqu’au culte wagnérien en essor dans sa patrie d’adoption, Munich. Lachner est issu d’une famille musicale. Lui-même et ses frères cadets Ignaz et Vincenz, tous deux eux-mêmes musiciens professionnels par la suite, apprirent tout d’abord la musique auprès de leur père, Anton Lachner, qui était organiste dans leur ville natale, Rain am Lech (Haute-Bavière). Franz Lachner apprit non seulement le jeu obligatoire du piano et de l’orgue, mais aussi le violon, le violoncelle, le cor et le chant. En 1822, il partit pour Munich et suivit l’enseignement de contrepoint et d’orgue de Kaspar Ett, longtemps organiste à l’église Saint-Michel de la cour.

    Translation (abridged): Peter Palmer

    Franz Lachner’s life (1803–1890) stretches over most of the 19th century from the age of Beethoven and Schubert, both of whom he knew, to the flourishing Wagner cult in his adopted home town of Munich. Lachner was born into a musical family. He and his younger brothers Ignaz and Vincenz – who, too, became professional musicians – received their first music lessons from their father Anton Lachner, the organist in their native town of Rain am Lech (Upper Bavaria). Franz Lachner studied not only the obligatory piano and organ but also violin, cello, horn and singing. In 1822 he went to Munich and studied counterpoint and organ under Kaspar Ett, the veteran organist at the Court Church of St. Michael.

    Two years later, Lachner moved to Vienna to study under Maximilian Stadler as well as under

    Ein Requiem zu Ehren Mozarts Franz Lachners Leben (1803–1890) erstreckt sich fast über das ganze 19. Jahrhundert, reicht musikgeschichtlich von der Zeit Beethovens und Schuberts, mit denen beiden er bekannt war, bis zum aufblühenden Wagner-Kult seiner Wahlheimat München. Geboren ist Lachner in einer musikalischen Familie. Er und seine jüngeren Brüder Ignaz und Vincenz, beide später ebenfalls professionelle Musiker, erhielten den ersten Musikunterricht bei ihrem Vater Anton Lachner, der in ihrem Geburtsort Rain am Lech (Oberbayern) Organist war. Franz Lachner lernte nicht nur das obligatorische Klavier- und Orgelspiel, sondern auch Violine, Violoncello, Horn und Gesang – ideale Voraussetzungen für seine spätere Karriere als Konzert- und Opernkapellmeister. Nach einigen Jahren Gymnasialunterricht in Neuburg an der Donau entschloss

Mozartverehrung
In der kleinen, aber feinen Nische der geistlichen Chormusik ist der Stuttgarter Carus-Verlag weltweit die Nummer eins. Weil Firmengründer Günter Graulich und sein Sohn und Geschäftsführer Johannes immer wieder ein feines Händchen für die richtige Mischung aus Bestsellern und Raritäten unter Beweis stellen. Das Requiem op. 146 in f-Moll von Franz Lachner gehört eindeutig in die letztere Kategorie.
1856 entstanden und uraufgeführt, spiegelt das Werk einerseits die große Mozart-Verehrung des zeitlebens sehr angesehenen Komponisten, weist jedoch andererseits in Harmonik und Orchestrierung wie auch mitunter in der Stimmführung deutlich romantische Züge auf und kombiniert diese Elemente wiederum mit einer kunstvollen kontrapunktischen Durchdringung zu einer eigenständigen Klangsprache: ein fraglos klassizistisch getönter (und deshalb häufig als konservativ wahrgenommener), aber keinesfalls rückschrittiger Standpunkt im vielfältigen Panorama des 19. Jahrhunderts, abseits der Fortschrittsästhetik der "Neudeutschen".
Der Carus-Verlag setzt - wie bei vielen seiner Ausgrabungen von Homilius über Zelenka und Pisendel bis Buchenberg - auch beim Münchner Hofkapellmeister Franz Lachner auf die bewährte Doppelstrategie und hat sowohl eine Einspielung (mit den Kammersolisten Augsburg unter Leitung von Hermann Meyer, Carus 83.178) als auch das Notenmaterial des Werks veröffentlicht. Die von Gerhard Urban sorgfältig edierte Partitur des rund einstündigen Requiems für sechs Soli, vierstimmigen Chor und Orchester bewegt sich dabei auf dem gewohnt hohen Carus-Standard: Alle Stimmen sind übersichtlich und gut lesbar auf einem stabilen, nicht zu hellen Papier gesetzt; der Kritische Bericht legt über jeden fehlenden Staccato-Punkt einzelner Quellen Rechenschaft ab - und zeugt vom hohen wissenschaftlichen Anspruch, wie ihn eine Nummer eins eben auszeichnet.
