Messiah 1741 - new light on Handel's masterpiece The focus of this new edition is the Messiah as first conceived by the composer in 1741: before its first performance in Dublin in 1742, before the first London performances of the mid 1740s, before the final Foundling Hospital performances in the late 1750s. The editor succeeds in creating a 21st-century edition from the perspective of 1741, making clear that Messiah was a genius hit from the start. Messiah 1741 - the first and only complete edition of Handel's autograph score Thorough information on Handel's performance practice in 1741 (including topics such as orchestration, continuo, text underlay and specific questions on interpretation) It offers a reconstruction of the wind parts according to contemporary sources Piano vocal score with contemporary vocal ornamentation First edition including the German text by Herder - a monument of the German enlightenment - which is contentwise and phonetically closer to Jennens' text than any other translation, therefore being a perfect singable alternative The appendix contains additionally the most popular and important aria versions composed after 1741 for practical reasons. Throughout this new edition, creative yet pragmatic scholarship shines through, and the Preface and Critical Report are thorough and unusually fascinating. ... I'm very happy to own the full score, and if I were starting out now, I'd invest in the whole kit and caboodle. (Jeremy Summerly, Choir & Organ)

The St. John Passion SWV 481, with its full title History of the Passion and Death of Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ According to the Evangelist St. John, is counted among the most frequently performed works of Heinrich Schutz. Other than the later passions by Johann Sebastian Bach, the original scoring does not include instrumental accompaniment. To enable a presentation of the passion by a wider circle of performers, however, the composer and church musician Arnold Mendelssohn (1855-1933) has developed this arrangement with organ or piano accompaniment, being a harmonic framework and new tone color at the same time. The edition also suggests chorales from the Evangelisches Gesangbuch for a possible active participation of the congregation.

In this vocal quartet for four female voices and piano, Schubert sets a text from the odes of Ewald Christian von Kleist to music, the first four stanzas of his 17-stanza poem hymn. According to tradition, Schubert had written it for the singer Anna Frohlich. It was first performed on 8 March 1827 in the Vienna Musical Society and published posthumously as op. 133 in 1839.
