The Creation (2012)/ Die Schöpfung (Nelsons)

Filmed in the beautiful setting of Naarden's Grote Kerk, one of the oldest churches in the Netherlands, Haydns musical portrait of the mystery of Creation comes alive under the direction of conductor John Nelson. The acoustics of the venue make the music sound magical, and the results are a magnificent Creation. Filmed live at the Grote Kerk, Naarden, Netherlands in June 2010. Directed by Rhodri Huw. BONUS: Video extras including: 25 minutes of rehearsal footage with commentary by conductor John Nelson, Meet Soli Deo Gloria introductory video. When I think upon my God, my heart is so full of joy that notes dance and leap from my pen. Franz Joseph Haydn I dont think there is any composer who had more of a sense of humor than Haydn. He was just naturally given to fun, to joy, to humor… and you find it all here.
