| Added by magataganm, 21 Jan 2020 Joseph Ohnewald (1781 - 1856) was a German composer born in Heuchlingen, Germany. After studying at Augsburg (1804, "Hoc tempore Rhetorices Studiosus"), he went back to Heuchlingen in 1811, took over his deceased father's Store and became Kapellmeister of the local Catholic church. The English noun mass is derived from Middle Latin missa. The Latin word was adopted in Old English as mæsse (via a Vulgar Latin form *messa), and was sometimes glossed as sendnes (i.e. 'a sending, dismission').The Latin term missa itself was in use by the 6th century. It is most likely derived from the concluding formula Ite, missa est ("Go; the dismissal is made"); missa here is a Late Latin substantive corresponding to classical missio. The missa as form of sacred musical composition, is a choral composition that sets the invariable portions of the Eucharistic liturgy (principally that of the Catholic Church, the Anglican Communion, and Lutheranism) to music. Most masses are settings of the liturgy in Latin, the liturgical sacred language of the Catholic Church's Roman liturgy, but there are a significant number written in the languages of non-Catholic countries where vernacular worship has long been the norm. For example, there are many masses (often called "communion services") written in English for the Church of England. Musical masses take their name from the Catholic liturgy called "the mass" as well. Masses can be a cappella, that is, without an independent accompaniment, or they can be accompanied by instrumental obbligatos up to and including a full orchestra. Many masses, especially later ones, were never intended to be performed during the celebration of an actual mass. Source: Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Josef_Ohnewald). Although originally composed for Accompanied Chorus, I created this Interpretation of the "Veni Creator Spiritus" (Come Creator Spirit) for Winds (Flute, Oboe, Bb Clarinet & Bassoon) & Strings (2 Violins, Viola & Cello). | |||
