Andreas Scholl (countertenor) The film accompanies the internationally renowned countertenor Andreas Scholl
to recitals in Dresden, Schwetzingen and his home town, Kiedrich. In interviews
Andreas Scholl sheds light on his personal and artistic development.
In bonus parts of the DVD Andreas Scholl sings John Dowland’s “Lute Songs“ and Dietrich
Buxtehude’s “Jubilate Domino“. Directly after the recital, Scholl and his co-performers
discuss the works and their interpretation of them.
“What is the point of a recital, an opera, what is the purpose of music, presented to
an audience by performers, communicators? Of course, the purpose of music and
art in general, is to enlighten and inspire the human spirit. It is about stimulating –
and shaping – both our hearts and our minds.” These and other questions Andreas
Scholl wants to find out in this portrait. “Scholl‘s voice is pure and beautiful in sound, his taste exquisite, his pitch and diction immaculate. It is inadequate to compare Andreas Scholl to many other countertenors now working, even the fi nest of them. Instead one is put in mind of legendary past masters.” (Fanfare Magazine) |
