Beethoven Lyrics

[IveyLeaguer]

Hi Everybody! Neat forum.

I'm looking for lyrics to 'Christ On The Mount of Olives'. Anyone know where I can find them?

Thanks.

Thanks so much, Rod, really appreciate that. Couldn't find them anywhere.

BTW, the best recording of Beethoven's Christ On The Mount of Olives that I know of is from the album "Absolute Heaven" by Robert Shaw and the Atlanta Symphony Chorus. Does anyone know of a better one?

Hey it took me less than one minute to find that on google, I just typed 'Libretto Christ on the mount of olives'!!

I can recommend a CD by Christoph Spering, Das Neue Orchester and the Chorus Musicus, on the Opus 111 label. This has the benefits of period instruments and a pretty good sound quality too.
