Content
journey to heaven under baroque vaults
A choral journey to heaven under the baroque vaults of Pöllau parish church, the St. Peter’s Basilica of Styria. Austria’s most famous chamber choir, the Arnold Schoenberg Chor from Vienna under its conductor Erwin Ortner, opens the gates to heaven with Anton Bruckner’s entrancing motets. The Austrian from Ansfelden near Linz was closer to paradise than his fellow composer Brahms from Hamburg. Why must we go through so much hardship to enter the kingdom of heaven? Ultimately, this question remains open in Brahms’ most famous motet.
