O Nata Lux is a six-part, a cappella motet. The anonymous tenth-century text is suitable for inclusion throughout the liturgical year. Evoking a deep sense of longing, this contemplative motet would enhance any concert programme of a capella choral music.

The Good Friday Responsory Tenebrae factae sunt for six-part chorus was commissioned in 2012 for Peking University Student Choir and was premiered at the World Choir Games in Cincinnati, Ohio, USA conducted by Hou Xijin. It is an ambitious work with a fervent intensity. Matsushita sets the two last words of Jesus, Deus meus, ut quid me dereliquisti? [My God, why hast thou forsaken me] and Pater, in manus tuas commendo spiritum meum [Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit] as pained outcries in Stravinskyian harshness, in chords characterized by tritones, as a truly superhuman work of redemption whose Easter message of hope only appears in the last conciliatory F major chord. Although this work lies slightly beyond the upper limit of the musical and vocal technical demands of the Carus Contemporary series, it is well within the abilities of ambitious chamber choirs.

Tu es Petrus (you are Peter, the rock) is based on a Gregorian antiphon for the Feast of Saints Peter and Paul/Feast of the Chair of Peter. The piece was composed specifically to fit the parameters and setting of a Papal audience, with a brief performance time. In six-parts with octave doublings, it makes a big a cappella sound for a big space. A powerful new choice for pilgrim choirs to Rome!

Maja S. K. Ratkje's A Dismantled Ode To The Moral Value Of Art for 6 Part Chorus.
It was performed under the direction of Leonard Bernstein at a concert to mark the fall of the Berlin Wall, it appears in Stanley Kubrick's A Clockwork Orange. Hitler celebrated his birthdays with it, and the government of Rhodesia made it their anthem. And the prisoners in German concentration camps played it. It also figured prominently at Mitterand's 1981 investiture. In 2012, we celebrate the Ode to Joy's 40 years anniversary as National Anthem of the EU.

In 1999 a Bronze Age metal disc was found near the city of Nebra (Saxony-Anhalt/Germany), showing astronomical symbols and phenomena. Dated c. 1600 years BC, the so-called “Nebra sky disk†is regarded as the world’s oldest evidence of the astronomical skills of this period and allows us deep insight into the knowledge of the heavens possessed by our ancestors. Wilfried Hiller was inspired by this artefact to compose a work for mixed chorus. Text in German.

Er macht nicht nur als Braunschweiger Domkantor, Organist und leidenschaftlicher Musik- bzw. Gesangspadagoge von sich reden. Gerd-Peter Munden stellt mit seiner Vertonung des 126. Psalms unter Beweis, dass er auch als Komponist geistlicher (Chor)Musik Meisterhaftes hervorzubringen versteht. Den zur Gattung der Wallfahrtslieder zahlenden Psalm Wenn der Herr die Gefangenen Zions erlosen wird setzt Munden fur sechsstimmigen gemischten Chor (SSATBB) a cappella und verlangt den Ausfuhrenden dabei in nur 70 Takten einiges ab. Haufige Taktwechsel sowie eine reiche (nicht nur) dynamische Ausdruckspalette mit feinsten Abstufungen, die vom dreifachen Pianissimo bis zu dreifachen Fortissimo reicht und ruhige bis sehr lebhafte Passagen umfasst, verleihen diesem 5-minutigen Werk einen hochst ergreifenden Gestus.

Scripture Reference: Luke 2:6-14 * ancient Latin text with a 19th century translation as well * Christmas carol of intensity, yet with a gentle lilt * demanding yet rewarding vocal writing with a high tessitura * like the Gregorian chant, modal with a slightly modern flavor * occasional six-part writing adds brilliance and depth * slower pace demands good breath control and stamina.
