Henze Work In London
“Novae de Infinito Laudes,” a substantial and splendid choral work by Hans Werner Henze, was enthusiastically received when it had its London premiere in a 8.8. C. concert conducted by the composer last month.
“Laudes” is a setting of texts by the sixteenth-century Italian humanist Giordano Bruno which contemplate the universive and the opposing principles of change and immutability that operate within it. The work is scored for unusual forces: woodwind without oboes or clarinets, a large brass contingent, guitars, harps and pianos (two of each), timpani, ’cellos and basses.
