Nine variegated Sacred Vocal Works with Orchestra by Mendelssohn have been compiled in this volume. They stem not only from various creative phases of the composer, but also in view of their vocal settings show up marked differences and thus reflect the variety of Mendelssohns creative oeuvre. One shared aspect is that all nine works remained unprinted during the composers lifetime. Only the Lauda Sion achieved celebrity; it was published with the posthumously attributed opus number 73 and took its place next to other choral works by Mendelssohn already in the 19th century. Now published within the Mendelssohn Complete Edition, it boasts a text-critically revised score available in many cases for the first time, and from which impulses for musical practice are sure to arise.

Works for male chorus or mens voices a cappella run through Mendelssohns oeuvre like a fine red thread. Whoever is only familiar with the six Lieder op. 50, which were printed during the composers lifetime, will be surprised that the Mendelssohn Work Catalogue lists altogether 38 such pieces written between 1820 and 1847. Mendelssohn apparently wrote a number of individual vocal pieces for private occasions, commissions, or as gifts to male vocal societies. Some of them are being published for the first time ever in this volume. The works are so conceived that they can be performed both by solo voices and by a chorus.Consists of two subvolumes and a supplement.

The year 1828 was a Durer Year (300th anniversary of death), and the Berlin Durer Festival was looking for a suitable composer to write the festival cantata. The renowned Carl Friedrich Zelter turned down the offer and recommended his pupil instead, the 18-year-old Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy. He accepted, and, within a few weeks, the Festmusik MWV D1, was finished, his first full-scored sacred vocal work. Mendelssohns Festmusik subsequently fell into oblivion despite its much-applauded world premiere. The specific context and the rather wooden libretto most likely proved too prohibitive even though the young composer had given his best. This can now be confirmed for the first time by consulting the new printed edition.

Rudolf Stephans Gesammelte Vortrage aus den Jahren 1964-1984 lassen die Grundintentionen seines wissenschaftlichen Arbeitens deutlich hervortreten: das musikalische Werk als individuelle Manifestation musikalischen Denkens zu begreifen. Stets stellt er die Musik selbst in den Mittelpunkt und sucht ihre Gesetzmassigkeiten und Strukturen aufzuspuren, zu beschreiben und zu begrunden. Mit Texten zu musikalischen Grundfragen, zum Schaffen der grossen Komponisten von Bach bis Reger sowie zu Musik und Musikern des 20. Jahrhunderts, ursprunglich konzipiert fur den lebendigen mundlichen Vortrag, bietet dieser Band einen reprasentativen Uberblick uber die Arbeit des bedeutenden Musikforschers.
