Juris Karlsons: Oremus - Sacred Choral Works
Latvian Rc / Sinfonietta Riga
Composer Juris Karlsons (b. 1948) is one of the leading names in Latvian music today. This new album by the Latvian Radio Choir under their music director Sigvards
Klava features Karlsons' choral works. These works are marked by deeply religious feeling and profound message. o Oremus is choral piece written by the composer in 2018 for the Latvian Radio Choir. It was premiered as part of the Lincoln Center White Light Festivals. When writing this work, no doubt Karlsons had specifically the sound and vocal abilities of the choir in mind. The largest work of the album is Adoratio (2010), a symphonic, single-movement work for choir and orchestra with a duration of over 30 minutes. Yet, this powerful work filled with drama can, like a symphony, be clearly divided into musical sections. Le lagrime dell'anima (2013) for piano and choir is based on a short poem written by the composer.
