âLösche die Lampe getrost, hülle in Frieden dich einâ (âPut out thy lamp with good heart, lay thee then peacefully downâ) â Johannes Brahmsâs final cycle of secular songs for mixed choir a cappella paints a striking picture of mortality, ultimate happiness and lost youth. The 4- to 6-part songs fascinate with their immense power and range of expression, which runs from short, quiet, melancholy phrases (âbreathe tremblingly forthâ, âO lifeless fallethâ) to elements of folk song (the horn calls in Nightwatch II) to mighty climaxes and double-choir effects produced with great economy of means. The closing movement In Autumn, with its idiosyncratic harmonies, is certainly one of Brahmsâs best secular compositions.All the songs are also available separately and as digital editions. The accompanying English text is the translation authorized by the composer himself.

Johann Michael Haydn's Requiem in C minor heavily influenced W. A. Mozart's Requiem. In just two weeks Michael Haydn composed his work in December 1771, on the occasion of the death of his employer, Prince Bishop Sigismund Count Schrattenbach, who was beloved among the people and was a great patron of the arts. The work was written under the impression of personal tragedy: Haydn's only child, Aloisia Josepha, died in January 1771, before completing her first year of life. Parts of the Schrattenbach-Requiem were played together with the completed movements from his second, unfinished Requiem during his own furneral service. During the funeral service in Vienna for Joseph Haydn, parts of his younger brother's C-minor Requiem were also performed. Score available separately - see item CA.5032100.

The Sechs Evangelien-Motetten (Six Gospel Motets) were composed by Johann Nepomuk David in 1957/58 and published as single editions by Breitkopf & Hartel in 1958. By this time, he was professor of music theory and counterpoint at the conservatory in Stuttgart. This later period of his composing activities also expresses itself in the music: demanding counterpoint is connected with expressive chromaticism and wide-range dynamic differentiation in these six settings of gospel texts. Compared to the almost simultaneously composed and published Sechs Evangelien-Motetten by Siegfried Strohbach (ChB 5360), the settings by David are of a higher difficulty level and therefore more suited to chamber choirs and other ambitious ensembles.CD:Vokalensemble per sonare, cond.
