Description:
Abendlied by Josef Rheinberger is one of the outstanding works of German Romantic church music. It was composed in a spirit of deep contemplation and is inspired by the psalm "Remain with us", conveying evening peace, silence and trust. The music unfolds with great simplicity, carried by singing lines of remarkable purity. Rheinberger shows a fine sense of balance and musical breathing, creating an atmosphere that is both intimate and radiant. Jean-François Michel's arrangement fully preserves the original spirit of the work while opening up a new palette of colors. Without burdening the message, it emphasizes the harmonic gentleness and expressive depth of this timeless page. Abendlied thus invites the listener to a moment of calm, contemplation and shared emotion.
