Description

The third volume of Breitkopf & Härtel Choir Library for mixed choir – Sacred Repertoire continues the church year with the overall ninth section which covers the time from Trinity Sunday to Thanksgiving, including feasts such as Assumption Day. It is followed by the Protestant Reformation Day with two motets on the Lutheran chorale “Ein feste Burg ist unser Gott”, among others. The largest part of the volume is taken up by the section on Eternity Sunday as all compositions on the subject of death and eternity are gathered here. Music for the funeral, however, can be found under Church-Related Occasions in the twelfth chapter. The feasts of consecration, confirmation and marriage are likewise covered here. Represented composers range from Palestrina and Monteverdi via Brahms and Reger to Johann Nepomuk David, Kurt Thomas and Günter Raphael. The enormous range of publications for mixed choir is published in the Choir Library in separate volumes for secular and sacred repertoire. The sacred part comprises five volumes, the first three of which contain all the works that can be textually and liturgically arranged in the order of the church year – sorted by Christian feasts and holidays. The first volume ranges from Advent to Palm Sunday, the second volume from the Holy Week to Pentecost and the third volume covers the time from Trinity Sunday to the last Sunday before Advent. The fourth volume contains motets without a specific relation to the liturgical year as well as sacred songs and festive music. The conclusion is formed by the fifth volume with Mass settings, sacred concertos and liturgical chants. By reason of limited space, only shorter settings of the Ordinary are found here. The represented composers range from the renaissance to the 20th century – from Palestrina, Schütz and Bach over Mendelssohn, Brahms and Reger to Johann Nepomuk David, Kurt Thomas and Günter Raphael. We wish you lots of joy at discovering and singing!
