Die historisch verburgte Begebenheit, dass Zar Peter I. von Russland (1672-1725) sich inkognito auf einer hollandischen Werft zum Zwecke des Aufbaus einer russischen Flotte im Schiffsbau kundig machte, ist im 18. und 19. Jahrhundert Gegenstand zahlreicher Buhnenstucke und Opern gewesen. Unter den Komponisten finden sich Namen wie Andre Ernest Gretry, Gaetano Donizetti und Adolphe Adam. Popular geworden ist allein Lortzings komische Oper Zar und Zimmermann, sein zweites abendfullendes Buhnenwerk. Lortzing schuf eine Oper voller eingangiger Melodien und kostlicher Szenen - man denke an die Kantatenprobe -, deren Beliebheit bis heute ungebrochen ist.Dieses Buch enthalt neben dem Textbuch einfuhrende Kommentare von Kurt Pahlen. Er begleitet das musikalische und aussere wie innere dramatische Geschehen der Oper mit Hinweisen zu kompositorischer Struktur und Sinnzusammenhang. Eine kurze Inhaltsangabe und ein Abriss der Entstehungsgeschichte stellen das Werk in einen Zusammenhang mit dem Gesamtschaffen des Komponisten und seiner Biographie und bieten eine umfassende, reich illustrierte Einfuhrung.

Today best known for his comic operas such as Zar und Zimmermann and Der Waffenschmied, Albert Lortzing was also a composer of sacred music. In 1822, inspired by the performances of great choral symphonic works at the Lower Rhine Music Festival, Lortzing, then aged only 21 years old, ventured to set a sacred anthem to music: In his Dich preist, Allmächtiger (Praise to you, Almighty) for four-part choir, soloists and orchestra, his love of opera shines through with memorable melodies, striking instrumentation and an expressive and diverse musical design that conjure up diverse scenes for the listener. The palette ranges from powerful wind passages praising God’s omnipotence to 'classical' fugati and intimate solo and ensemble passages with transparent accompaniment.

The Urtext edition – in fact the first printed version of the work – is based on autograph sources. Drawing on the preparatory work and practical experience of church musician and conductor Wolfgang Helbich, this edition was completed by his son, the musicologist Martin Helbich. Vocal score and performance materials are also available.
