- Jan Dismas Zelenka (1679-1745)
Miserere in c-minor, ZWV 57
for Soprano solo, Choir, 2 Oboes, Strings and Continuo:
I. Miserere mei Deus I.
II. Miserere mei Deus II. (actually after Frescobaldi) - Hudba
0:54 ~ 1:57 How come a human could come up with that kind of melodies?! Simply breathtaking.
Amazing music. I only discovered this composer today, when it was mentioned on the radio, with a short 10 second fragment, and I wanted to listen to more of it. Now I do and I am amazed.
Well, if you just discovered Zelenka today, it's a long road ahead for you to discover others (if you did not already): Tartini, Dall'Abaco, Veracini, Caldara, Predieri, Durante, Paisiello, Porpora, Manfredini, Carcani and so on and on :-)
This music is on the level of Bach and Mozart. Basically, there's absolutely no reason that this guy shouldn't be an iconic composer.
Opus 32 : i'm waiting for Zelenka revival for almost 40 years - now, every year is coming with the discovery of beautiful masterpieces. But Zelenka will never become iconic : no opera, very few instrumental music.
Opus 32
I thing the most beautiful piece form Zelenka is his Et Incarnatus Est from Missa Votiva ZWV 18. Do you know it?
@@jonasstary5895 -Thank you for this reference, Zelenka is really outstanding and deserves to be better known….
@@jonasstary5895 His various "Christe eleison" are also masterpieces. I'm going on CZcams every evening right now, to listen to some Zelenka. Here is one of his Christe Eleison:

...and of course directed by Vaclav Luks and the dream ensemble Collegium 1704 and Collegium Vocal 1704 based in Prague...A dream ensemble, instruments and vocal artists alike together with their director and with the fabulous sound of real baroque music.
Zelenka was an almost exact contemporary of J.S. Bach's. Zelenka worked as the court religious composer in Dresden (Catholic), while Bach did the same in nearby Leipzig (Protestant). When Zelenka visited Leipzig, he stayed at Bach's house. Bach at one time also asked his son, Johann Friedemann Bach, to copy some of Zelenka's music from his "Magnificat" so that Bach could present it in Leipzig. Now that folks, is a recommendation!
Zelenka, as well as the lesser known Charpentier always get me, because Bach was a prodigy, practically a musical savant, but Zelenka wasn't, he had sheer and pure talent and that's what gets me most.

JAN DISMAS ZELENKA
( LOUNOVICE 1679-1745 DRESDE )
MISERERE I . Une merveille voix grandiose et musique Eternel il est considéré comme le plus important compositeur de la musique baroque tchèque. Apprecier de Bach et de TELEMANN. Merci pour ce moment de musique baroque avec ZELENKA et cette vidéo sublime.
Jan Dysmas Zelenka is one of the best! His music is beautiful, clear, it says what is required to say and nothing more -- with simple, but genial, language of pure sound.
When man built great cathedrals and performed music inside of them that was worthy of their grandeur. Why did we stop?
Merci pour ces 7 minutes 15 de paradis sur terre.
So grateful to all those, and to their collective efforts to bring us the music of such a fabulous composer. Thanks to all them...
Lovely, absolutely beautiful
This piece drove me to tears and then drove me to buy a violin. unbelievable
Ho scoperto da qualche giorno questo musicista che dal poco che ho ascoltato sento degno di grande ammirazione per la potenza espressiva l'ampiezza di respiro musicale.Noto la sicurezza di toni e motivi di grande suggestione religiosa.
sang this a few years ago... what an experience!
Zelenka is fantastik compozer.I love him
Yes, Bach was a composer who wasn't afraid to admire his collegues and admit that they're good.
Great piece of music!
Ridiculously beautiful. I'm dead.
HAVING STOOD CLOSE TO THE GREAT PIPES ... THERE AND IN THIS IS THE SOUND OF SOULS
This is wonderful!
AWESOME....
this is great! thanks.
Perfect! The violins here are amazing!
Zelenka a discovery... like it
Потрясающая музыка...
счастлива , что узнала о ней...)
спасибо!
Gotta love Dombrecht and Il Fondamento. Zelenka lives on!
A recent discovery, just love the muscularity of Zelenka's music - joyful!
great!
Otra inmortal de Zelenka..
Beautiful!
wonderful
excellent, dramatique, belle interpréation
niesamowite, fantastyczne!
very nice piece of Czech music!! I like Zelenka :)!!
Una obra maestra.
I thing the most beautiful piece form Zelenka is his Et Incarnatus Est from Missa Votiva ZWV 18. Listen it! :)
I would rather recommend his ZWV 12 Missa Xaverii with a stupendous SANCTUS having wonderful gloria from men (bass)
Ganz große Musik - schade, dass er selbst in Deutschland so selten live zu hören ist.
The opening is kind of similar to the opening of Bach's St. John Passion
Grande!!!
Belissimo!
Maravilloso. Nivel Mozart. Enamorada de las composiciones de Zelenka.
Mayor que mozart!!! Por mucho zelenka es mejor
We are going to be performing this work in November of this yr.
First I thought that Zelenka inspired this piece on Mozart's Requiem, until I compared the years they were both active... Did Mozart inspire his requime on some fundaments of this piece?
Zelenka is an underappreciated gedius
Second only to J.S.BACH. A great honor indeed.
IN CHRISTI
@Cantormatis : Zelenka and Bach knew and respected each other and worked at the same court - so definitelly they influenced each other
@vasilisparos This recording is by Paul Dombrecht and Il Fondamento.
stunned - why he and his music have been forgotten for so long...?
@Tomv1750 Zelenka was not mainly influenced by Neapolitan composers but by the traditional Viennese church style of Fux and Caldara, but of course he knew the music of Durante, Mancini etc. Only in his later works you can hear a stronger neapolitan influence. August converted only for political reasons and was not interested in religion. It was his daughter in law Maria Josepha, daughter of emperor Joseph I., who helped to establish a rich catholic church music tradition in Dresden after 1720.
who are the performers? Great music, wonderful musicians. Thank you.
What came first - ZWV 57 or JSB's St. John's Passion? There's a lot of undeniable similarity between "Miserere mei Deus" and "Herr, unser Hersscher", don't you think?
I wanna be yours
Always and Forever
@lukaszrzepinski Wrong: Bach worked in Leipzig (St Thomas Church) and Zelenka at theDresden Court - but of course they knew each other.
Saccheggiato per la colonna sonora dell'Ultimo Imperatore.
@paradoxicus tengo entendido que fue re-descubierto recientemente. Las marejadas de la historia se han llevado con ellas muchas partituras...
@cerol43 It depends on which of the Bach you mean, J.S Bach son Wilhelm Friedemann, was the organist in St Sophia church in Dresden from 1733-1746
Nice post but it would be better if you identified the group performing! They're terrific.
Terrific music. Has a driving force to it that reminds me of some of Mozart's works; and the fugue like qualities of Bach. I suspect Zelenka was "held back" for recognition because of his difficult name. He should be ranked with Bach and Handel as a great Baroque composer. Better than Vivaldi, in my opinion, and more varied than the great Corelli.
Мощная музыка! Красивые голоса, вернее многоголосье, "античное" ассоциации.......
Согласен 100%
Misc brought me here.
My ex-wife was fat. But this is very good.
Orvar Surströmmingsson I didn't need to know that how do you expect me to live with that sir huh!!!??
Orvar Surströmmingsson Good to know.
I'm sorry. I hope you can live with the fact that my ex-wife was fat. You must realize that this music is awsome though.
Sviđa mi se ovo delo. (Međutim, da ubacim malo crnog humora : "ne znam zašto toliko drame oko života, kad je dovoljno samo prestat disat !")
Sorry, but although I try hard I just can not understand the use of such weak adjective as "nice". Zelenka is undoubtly one of the utmost highlights of /not only/ baroque music. His incredible sense of harmony, mastercraft of counterpoint and polyphony make him a real genius whose music lost nothing of its energy and deep spirituality irrespective of its age.
Está bueno, le falta un poco de profundidad nada más, como lo hacía Händel o Bach.
@unwrought i think nice is better than your pseuds attempt with flowery language and superlatives. just saying.
What did you just said??
Up to 2:20 it's terrific. Then it gets, well, boring. Perhaps the difference between this and your typical bit of Bach.
It's the matter of taste, so you should not use word "boring", maybe "not to my taste" is better phrase. Anyway, appreciate, honest opinion. Did you try Durante, perhaps?
