Info for Scarlatti & Dvořák: Stabat Mater

Simon-Pierre Bestion stellte zwei Stabat Mater gegenüber, zwischen denen mehr als 150 Jahre liegen: "In diesen beiden Werken spüre ich dieselbe Tonsprache, denselben Ausdruck von Trauer", sagt der Gründer von La Tempête... "Ich habe beschlossen, die Orchestrierung von Scarlatti zu 'vergrößern' und die von Dvořák zu 'verkleinern', damit sie sich auf gleicher Ebene begegnen können. Bei Scarlatti habe ich Streicherstimmen hinzugefügt, die manchmal die Vokallinien verdoppeln, colla parte, wie es zu jener Zeit oft gemacht wurde: Dies ermöglicht nicht nur eine Verstärkung des Klangs, sondern verleiht der Stimme auch ein zusätzliches Timbre. Für den Dvořák habe ich die ursprüngliche Klavierstimme in ihre minimale orchestrale Dimension, d. h. für Streicher, transkribiert. Dadurch entsteht eine gemeinsame Klangwelt zwischen den beiden Werken - ich würde sogar sagen, sie teilen dieselbe Art von Lyrik, bei der nur die Klangfarben von Klavier, Orgel und Theorbe hervorstechen."
