Text: Bible

Das Oratorium ist das dritte der in rascher Folge 1831 entstandenen kirchenmusikalischen Werke; es ist größer angelegt als die vorangegangenen Kantaten: 5 bis zu 8-stimmige Chorsätze, Erweiterung des Klangapparates um drei Posaunen. Wieder spannt Fanny Hensel-Mendelssohn den Bogen zurück, diesmal in vorbarocke Zeit und erreicht damit eine zusätzliche Dimension ihrer individuellen Tonsprache. Modale Harmoniemuster schaffen bisweilen eine 'archaische' Atmosphäre für biblische Worte. Aufführungsmaterial leihweise/ Performance material available on hire.

This oratorio is the third of three church works composed in rapid succession on 1831; its scoring is more abundant than that of the cantatas composed prior to it: there are five- to eight-part choruses and the Orchester is expanded to include three Posaunes. Once again Fanny Hensel-Mendelssohn looks back in musical history, this time to the pre-Baroque era, and adds a new dimension to her own compositional language by doing so. At times modal harmonies create an „archaic“ atmosphere für the biblical texts. Performance material available on hire.
