Written in
memory of a loved one,
this piece celebrates a
love of life and a love
of music. Sections of
text are taken from the
traditional hymn How
Can I Keep from
Singing and the use
of Pachelbel's Canon
in D as an overlay
reflect the universal
nature of music and its
connection to the human
spirit.

Among
Campra's Latin works, the
,Messe de mort' is
perhaps one of the more
successful and today it
is one of the more
frequently performed. It
is also the most
enigmatic score of his
entire output. Despite
extensive researches, no
evidence of any sort has
yet been brought to light
to document its origin,
purpose, date of
composition, first
performance or reception.
A stylistic analysis
indubitably supports the
contention that the
,Messe de mort' is a late
work, composed perhaps
between 1722 and 1729.
The present edition
is based on the
manuscript from the
Bibliotheque Nationale de
France (Paris). It it the
oldest known source of
the work. The very few
errors have been
corrected. (Jean-Paul
Montagnier) Vokalensemble
Stuttgart und den
Kammerchor des
Kopernikus-Gymnasiums
Wasseralfingen. Fur diese
beiden ganz
unterschiedlichen
Chorformationen hat
Martin Smolka 2012 auch
gezielt seine Partitur
angelegt. Biografisch ist
das Agnus Dei eine Art
kleines Requiem fur
seinen kurz zuvor
verstorbenen Vater. Das
liturgische Agnus Dei
rahmt den deutschen Text
Eh das Madchen entschlief
... der bei Auffuhrungen
in anderen Landern durch
eine Ubersetzung ersetzt
werden soll.
Der
SWR-Redakteur Hans-Peter
Jahn schreibt dazu im
Programmheft: Die fur
Smolka typischen
minimalistischen
Taktzellen schaffen eine
archaische Sinnlichkeit.
Eine einfache und
zugleich streng gebaute
Vokalmusik mit
Tiefenwirkung.
Nac
h der Urauffuhrung war
die Esslinger Zeitung
hellauf begeistert:
Smolka ist ein Meister
der Stimmbehandlung und
der chorischen
Klanggestaltung. Im
Zentrum des Stucks gerat
die Musik zum Stillstand:
im leisen gleichmassigen
Summen uber dem plotzlich
fortissimo ein
tschechisches Kinderlied
erklingt eines das der
Vater seinen Kindern
haufig vorgesungen hat.
Das alles war sehr
beruhrend. Und eigentlich
noch mehr als das. My
father PhDr. Jaroslav
Smolka (1933-2011) was a
leading Czech
musicologist author of
books Czech Cantata and
Oratorium Fuga in Czech
Music Smetana's Orchestra
Music Smetana's Vocal
Music monography of Jan
Dismas Zelenka and many
others. He was a
legendary teacher of
Music History at Prague
Music Academy critic
recording producer
composer; for almost 50
years he was an important
and highly respected
personality of Prague
musical life. My
father devoted a lot of
time and energy to
musical education and
activities of my sister
and me using often quite
original methods such as
teaching of intervals and
counterpoint through
Bartok's Microcosmos ear
training filling all
imaginable moments of
everyday life or lessons
of harmony analysis
starting with Overture to
Tristan and Musorgsky's
Catacombs. The Martinu
song Wondering Maiden was
his solo number in our
home vocal productions
which he used to sing
with amazing devotion
while his huge voice was
audible in several
neighboring
streets. My Agnus Dei
is closely bound to all
this history e.g. by
using canon and
preferring beauty of
dissonant seconds like
Bartok or quoting Martinu
and his refined
neoclassical harmony.
Father would be probably
a bit critical about the
minimalistic monotony of
the main body of the
piece. Nevertheless
firstly he would
improvise a short lecture
of history of Agnus Dei
in Requiem in Czech Music
naming by heart many
dates and all examples of
changes of order of the
traditional text by
composers. Examples would
be sung
probably. (Martin
Smolka).

The
Complete Vocal Works
Johann Pachelbel is known
today as a composer of
organ music and of a
world-famous instrumental
canon which frequently
features in concert
programmes and recording
catalogues. However, the
same can be said of only
a few of his vocal
compositions. At most,
the motets appear
occasionally in church
music repertoire.
Pachelbelâ??s arias,
vocal concerti and
large-scale Magnificats
have received little
attention up to now.
Church musicians and
musicologists have long
wished for a critical
edition of these
important works, which
survive in Pachelbelâ??s
manuscript and were
largely composed in his
main places of work,
Erfurt and Nuremberg . As
always with such
ventures, new discoveries
are to be expected
regarding the body of
works, source material
and the context of the
works. This concerns not
only beautiful music, but
rather a deepening of our
understanding of
Pachelbel as a key figure
between southern and
central German
traditions, and the
recognition of an oeuvre
which has all too often
been pushed into the
shadows by the mighty
Bach.
The
Critical Edition
The edition aims to make
available all of Johann
Pachelbelâ??s surviving
vocal works in the best
possible form. It is
edited by the Institut
für Musikwissenschaft
at the University of
Erlangen-Nuremberg and
the Institut für

Two
volumes per year are
planned.
As a
chronological order is
not possible in many
cases, the individual
works have been arranged
according to scoring
within their groups.
Fragments and works where
Johann Pachelbelâ??s
authorship is doubtful
appear at the end of the
respective group.
Each volume includes
an introduction (Ger/Eng)
