Nobilissima Visione (The Noblest Vision), is the third of 5 ballets composed by Hindemith. Subtitled A Dance Legend in Six Scenes, Nobilissima Visione was first performed in 1938 at Theatre Royal, Drury Lane in London just one year after Hindemith had fled Germany. From the ballet, the composer extracted a shortened orchestral suite which has become an important piece of orchestral literature. Based on the life of St. Francis of Assisi, Nobilissima Visione was inspired during a trip to Italy. The piece brings together elements of Italy’s rich musical history and Hindemith’s compositional imagination.
An important note: this download is a reduction of the entire 11 movement ballet, not of the shortened orchestral suite.
