Choruses from stage works have always been a popular component of the repertoire of choirs and choral societies large and small, and most of them function perfectly well when detached from the context of their respective operas; indeed, several reach audiences that may have some reservations about going to see operas in their entirety. The choruses are usually less elaborate than virtuoso arias and scenes, and often feature catchy melodies that can be instantly appreciated and remembered.
In the past, some opera choruses even helped to write political history, one being the Chorus of the Hebrew Slaves from Verdi’s Nabucco. It went on to become the hymn of the Risorgimento – the Italian national unification movement at the end of the 19th century.
This new CD from BR-Klassik, with its famous choruses and instrumental numbers from Italian, German and Russian operas, is a musical fireworks display.
