Das Oratorium "A Child of Our Time" war Tippetts künstlerische und emotionale Antwort auf die Ereignisse, die zur "Reichskristallnacht" im November 1938 geführt hatten. Als formale und historische Vorbilder für sein Oratorium verwendete Tippett die Bach-Passionen und Händels Messias, die sich mit dieser zeitgenössischen Moralität das Thema des Todes eines Menschen vor dem allgemeinen Hintergrund menschlichen Leidens teilen. Tippetts Verwendung des Spirituals als zeitgenössisches Gegenstück zum lutherischen Choral der Bachschen Sätze zieht sein Publikum durch die "einzigartige verbale und musikalische Metapher" der Spirituals enger ins Drama. Schwierigkeitsgrad: 3

A Child Of Our Time is probably Tippett's most celebrated work. It began life in 1938 when Tippett was searching for an appropriate subject for a full-scale oratorio which would be modelled on Handel's Messiah and Bach's Passions. With the Second World War and particularly the news of Kristallnacht in Nazi Germany, the idea for A Child Of Our Time was born. He enriched the work with Negro spirituals, the perfect modern equivalent to Bach's chorales. The result is an exultant assertion of compassion and brotherhood against all divisions of race or religion. This is the Vocal Score with Piano reduction.
