Projekt
The Oratorio “APOCALYPSE – The Revelations of St John” composed by Greek composer Tassos Ioannides is based on the last book of the New Testament, written in Greek by St John the Divine, on the Greek island of Patmos while on exile by the Romans. The visionary, allegorical passages of the text, full of dramatic imagery, form a central part of Christian eschatology and have intrigued and inspired throughout the ages.
The “Apocalypse” oratorio is a major work of ninety minutes duration in seven parts, written for full symphony orchestra, mixed chorus, two tenors, a soprano, a baritone and a narrator. The oratorio’s Greek text, based on the words of St John written 2,000 years ago, has also been translated into English by poet, Hellenistic scholar, theologist and musician Philip Grundy, enabling presentation of the work in either language.
