About this arrangement

Mixed choir, percussion and organ (Choral Score) SKU: HL.49044596 Mixed Choir, Percussion, and Organ. Composed by Rolf Rudin. This edition: Saddle stitching. Sheet music. Edition Schott. Softcover. Composed 2004. Op. 67. 16 pages. Duration 14'. Schott Music #ED21851-01. Published by Schott Music (HL.49044596). ISBN 9790001197816. 7.5x11.0x0.077 inches. Latin.Like most of his compositions, Rolf Rudin's Latin-language Ave Crux, Spes Unica (Hail the Cross, Our Only Hope) for mixed choir, percussion and organ was commissioned for a special event - in this case to mark the inauguration of the new Bishop of Wurzburg, Dr. Friedhelm Hofmann. The dedicatees of the work composed in 2014 for four- to eight-part choir are the (former) Cathedral's director of music Martin Berger and the Choir of the Wurzburg Cathedral, two musical institutions of the region, which allows conclusions to be drawn about the high artistic value of this composition. Even the initial musical expression marking 'Atmospharisch bewegt' [Atmospherically emotional] points to the intense sensual tonal spheres in which the award-winning composer puts both singers and listeners in this c. 8-minute sacred work using words by Edith Stein.
