About this arrangement

Orchestra solo voices, SATB chorus, chamber orchestra SKU: CA.2046100 Composed by Heinrich Schutz. Edited by Uwe Wolf. Carus digital: Extra digital products. Full Score. SWV 461. Duration 12 minutes. Published by Carus Verlag (CA.2046100). ISBN 9790007293123. Key: E phrygian. German.A psalm concerto by Heinrich Schutz for solo voices, choir, 2 violins, 3 trombones, and basso continuo which is too little known. It can also alternatively be performed by smaller forces. Schutz probably wrote the concerto for a major political occasion in connection with the Thirty Years' War. He hauntingly set the plea for God's help and peace throughout the land, sometimes in unison or for duet with echo passages, sometimes for tutti, but always in harmonically exciting fashion leading to the vision that finally "justice and peace kiss". An exciting work for concerts on the theme of psalms and peace.
