description Odysseus Overview
Odysseus is a secular oratorio by Max Bruch, composed in 1873. Its subject is drawn from Homer’s Odyssey and follows the Greek hero Odysseus during his long return journey from the Trojan War to Ithaca. The work applies the large vocal and orchestral forces of the nineteenth-century oratorio to a classical mythological narrative rather than to a biblical or explicitly liturgical subject.
