Bruckner described his setting of Psalm 150 of 1892 as my best festive cantata of all. Psalm 150 has a definite festive character, manifested straight away in the monumental Hallelujah theme for the full forces which opens the cantata, and which punctuates the work and concludes it. Bruckner devotes most of his music to the verse Alles was Odem hat, lobe den Herrn - firstly in an exciting section with solo violin and solo soprano, and subsequently in a great fugue on a striking octave theme. All in all, a fascinating combination of filigree motifs, chromatically bold complexities and intensifications, and powerful passages up to triple forte. The chorus is often divided in the homophonic passages, with wide vocal ranges, but the fugue remains in four parts.With a duration of just 9 minutes, this is an ideal companion piece for other shorter works by Bruckner (such as the Te Deum) or, indeed, works by other composers.

Dan Forrest's three settings of Hallelujah Psalms (for SATB choir and piano) range from invigorating to deeply touching to dancing for joy! Each movement begins and ends with the statement Hallelu Yah, just as the three Psalms do. Optional percussion (inspired by the text of Psalm 150 and the scriptural account the psalmist Asaph playing the cymbals; 1-2 players) adds an additional layer of sparkling energy. May be performed as a set as individual movements, suitable for worship or concert settings.

ISBN 9790007186197. Language: English. Text: Broadbridge, Edward.

In his Psalm 151 on lyrics by Edward Broadbridge, the Danish composer John Hoybye stages, so to speak, a theatrical play, assigning clear roles to the solo violin and the choir. The violin, representing the voice of God, enters into a dialog with the choir which represents the voice of man. They speak to one another, they comment on each other, wrestle with each other, spur each other on and thus develop a musical momentum. Score available separately - see item CA.1011300.
