Schnittke's choral concert on the poems of Grigor Narekatsi performed by musicAeterna will take place on September 11 at the Saratov Conservatory named after L. V. Sobinov.

The premiere of Schnittke's concert on the poems of the Armenian philosopher and theologian Grigor Narekatsi, performed by the musicAeterna choir under the direction of conductor Teodor Currentzis, took place in Moscow in the fall of 2020. The concert was successfully performed in the Great Hall of the Moscow Conservatory, 2 years later it was heard in Yerevan, and now it will open the Sobinov Festival in Saratov. This year it will be dedicated to the composer’s 90th anniversary, and it is logical that one of his most important works will be performed on the opening day.

The concert premiered in 1986, and 4 years earlier he converted to Catholicism, while confessing to an Orthodox priest. Therefore, it is no coincidence that the textual basis of the concert was the “Book of Sorrowful Songs,” written by the Armenian poet Grigor Narekatsi in the 10th century. Chapter 3, entitled “The Word to God Coming from the Depths of the Heart,” was chosen for the concert. The four sections of this chapter became the four parts of the concert.

Schnittke created one of the most soulful works that literally hypnotizes listeners, even those who are far from religious life. Repentance and purification, a mixture of musical traditions from different countries, sorrow and joy - this work is distinguished by an amazing wealth of moods and creative techniques.

This concert brings together professional musicians and simply connoisseurs of classical music, people of different ages, professions, different faiths and beliefs - unites in one impulse that was understandable both to those who lived a thousand years ago and to our contemporaries. This impulse is hot and sincere - to find the path to salvation, purification, and ultimately - the path to God.

The work was written to be performed by a choir a cappella, that is, without musical accompaniment.
