Schöpfungsmessen von Luigi Gatti und Joseph Haydn
An original, a quotation and an arrangement: The Creation Masses by Luigi Gatti and Joseph Haydn both allude to Haydn´s Schöpfung. Luigi Gatti (1740-1817) used entire movements from Die Schöpfung and sensitively adapted them to the liturgical text of the Ordinary. Haydn, on the other hand, quoted directly from the oratorio in his mass. Thus, in the Gloria a quotation is heard from the duet „Holde Gattin, dir zur Seite.“ The CD originated as a live recording of a performance in the Frauenkirche Dresden by the Dresden Kreuzchor and the Dresden Philharmonie.

Dresdner Kreuzchor
The Dresden Kreuzchor is one of the world’s oldest and most famous boys’ choirs. Its most important task in its 800 years of existence is still the musical accompaniment of the vespers and services at Dresden’s Kreuzkirche. Not only on religious holidays but also throughout the entire church year the Kreuzchor accompanies half of all liturgical services in the famous church on the old market. The impressive architecture of the Kreuzkirche is an added attraction for the 3000 spectators of its choir concerts. As the city’s oldest and critically acclaimed cultural institution, the Dresden Kreuzchor has marked Dresden’s musical life in a very special way and spreads the city’s reputation as a cultural metropolis throughout the world as one of its most prominent ambassadors. Several times a year, the Dresden Kreuzchor goes on national and international concert tours beyond Germany and Europe’s borders to Israel, Canada, Japan, South America and the USA. Moreover, it performs at international music festivals as well as on countless radio and television recordings. A very wide repertoire ranging from early Baroque to world premieres of contemporary music has enabled it to make more than 800 recordings in the last 80 years for prestigious record labels such as Deutsche Grammophon, Teldec, Capriccio and Berlin Classics. There is a constant cooperation with famous orchestras such as the Dresden Philharmonic and the Sächsische Staatskapelle Dresden. Renowned opera houses regularly employ members of the choir as soloists for roles such as the three boys in the Magic Flute. The Kreuzchor singers, called “Kruzianer,” still pursue their education and graduate from the Kreuzschule; about half of them live in the adjacent boarding school. In addition to their regular classes, the 150 singers aged nine to eighteen have weekly singing and instrumental lessons. Their daily rehearsals and the specific sound of the choir are the basis of the success and the fame of the Dresden Kreuzchor. Personal details

Conductor
Roderich Kreile
For centuries the position as cantor of the Dresdner Kreuzchor (Choir of the Church of the Holy Cross) has been among the most honorable and renowned positions in Protestant church music. Roderich Kreile has served as the 28th post-Reformation cantor of the Dresdner Kreuzchor since 1997. He was born in 1956 and studied church music and choral conducting in Munich. Roderich Kreile quickly achieved nationwide recognition as a church musician. He taught at the Munich Conservatoire between 1989 and 1996, eventually as a professor, and led two choirs. Furthermore, in 1994 he took over the position as Director of the Munich Philharmonic Choir. As an organist and tutor he has received invitations from both within Germany and from abroad. Kreuzkantor Roderich Kreile all music performances in the church as well as the concerts and tours of the Dresdner Kreuzchor. There, he has established with the members of the choir – named “Kruzianer” –, a wide-ranging repertoire of religious and secular choral works from throughout the history of music. In the last few years he has given many compositions their first performances. He has also strengthened ties with renowned orchestras and produced numerous radio and CD recordings. In previous centuries the area of responsibility of the cantor of the Dresdner Kreuzchor was concentrated primarily on the leadership of the religious services, as is still the case. Nowadays, however, the remit of the Kantor far exceeds purely artistic responsibility; as the leader of the Dresdner Kreuzchor, Roderich Kreile also has the responsibility of being a community representative.

Reviews
[...] Interpretatorisch handelt es sich zweifelsohne um eine gelungene Produktion, bei der das Solistenquartett mit einer geschlossenen Leistung überzeugt, [...] und die Dresdner Philharmoniker eine rundum solide Leistung abliefern. Doch nicht nur musikalisch ist diese CD zu empfehlen, auch das Konzept ist bemerkenswert.
