Arranged for SATB choir, two keyboards, strings, and optional harp, with soprano, tenor (optional) and baritone soloists, this fresh and unorthodox interpretation reflects on the words of the Latin Mass by juxtaposing them with poems in English. The “Kyrie” uses Francis Quarles’ “Close now thine eyes and rest secure” as the opposing English text. After the choir begins the requiem text in Latin (“Requiem aeternam” through the “Kyrie eleison,”) the soprano soloist has a 27-measure solo in which the English text appears. Then the solo is repeated over choir accompaniment and the opening Latin text reappears to close the movement. Duration 9:13.

Der 1795 geborene Robert Lucas de Pearsall gilt als einer der Wegbereiter des Cacilianismus, einer kirchenmusikalischen Restaurationsbewegung mit Ruckbesinnung auf den aus Renaissance und Barock uberlieferten A-cappella-Stil. Auch bei seiner weltlichen Motette Lay a garland fur achtstimmigen Chor a cappella (SSAATTBB) lasst sich der Hang des Komponisten zum Kathedralklang nicht leugnen. Umso dankenswerter ist es, dass sich Tobias Bromann, seines Zeichens Kantor am Berliner Dom, dieses exquisiten Chorsatzes angenommen und ihn in seiner Umformung zu einem Kyrie nun auch kirchenmusikalischen Zwecken zuganglich gemacht hat. Dabei fugt sich der Kyrie-Text wie selbstverstandlich in die flachige Polyphonie und die schwebenden Harmonien dieser geradezu meditativen Vokalkomposition ein. Ein wunderbares Stuck Chorliteratur, das ganz auf renaissancehafte Klanglichkeit ausgerichtet ist.
