SSAATTBB chorus a cappella - 5

Friede auf Erden op. 13 is regarded as Arnold Schoenberg's last tonal composition and is one of the few choral works of the Second Viennese School. On the same day that he completed his op. 13, Schoenberg made the first sketches for his 2nd String Quartet, a key work in atonal music. Although Schoenberg later orchestrated Friede auf Erden, he intended the piece to be performed unaccompanied.To help rehearsing the work, this choral score contains the piano transcription made by Anton Webern for use in rehearsals for the planned first performance. The text for op. 13 is a secular Christmas poem by Conrad Ferdinand Meyer. At the time of its composition (1907), Schoenberg thought the vision of a reine Harmonie unter Menschen (pure harmony amongst people) described in the poem was conceivable, but he later distanced himself from this idea. What remained is a composition of great artistic power and depth - a real showpiece for ambitious choirs!

From his Album for Male Voices, Op. 30, a set of 12 Norwegian folksongs set for chorus with male leads, The Great Angelic Host was arranged for double mixed chorus by Eyvind H. Bull, and has here been edited by Walter Aschenbrenner. We are pleased to make this exquisite choral work available once again. David Monrad Johansen, in his published life of Grieg, was moved to say, In The Great Angelic Host true religious feeling has been given the purest expression. This composition shows what wonderful material we have right at hand on which to base a future church music for Norway..

Heavenly Father was commissioned by Sydney Chamber Choir for a concert in 2022 which featured Heinrich Schütz’s Musikalische Exequien. Melodic lines from Schütz’s work are used throughout Heavenly Father: the first soprano melody in the opening chorus at ‘Herr Gott Vater in Himmel’ is featured at the beginning and repeated throughout, as are the melodies, for example, at ‘Also hat Gott die Welt geliebt’, and at ‘seinem verklärten Leibe’, among other places.

In a conversation about what this commission would be, it was agreed that the sense of the work would be about the circle of life expressed in Musikalische Exequien rather than about death itself. It is because of this ‘sense’ that the end of Heavenly Father is reversed, illustrating a musical circle: the lower voices sing the ‘Herr Gott Vater in Himmel’ phrase backwards, and the upper voices sing the melodies backwards that were sung by the lower voices at the beginning.
