Complete Edition, edited
by the Packard Humanities
Institute According to
C.P.E. Bach, the oratorio
Die Israeliten in der
Wuste [The Israelites in
the Wilderness] can be
performed ... at all
times, inside and outside
the church, simply to the
praise of God. The
composition depicts the
Israelites' journey, full
of privations, through
the wilderness, their
despair and their
pleading. This
harmonically bold work
was first published in
1775 and received
numerous performances
during the composer's
lifetime in
German-speaking
countries. Score
available separately -
see item CA.3323800.
