The composer, chorus and organist Janusz Krzysztof Korczak, who was born in Krakow in 1994, was awarded the 3rd prize at the International Composition Competition Musica Sacra Nova 2016 for his choral piece Cum enim quietum silentium contineret omnia, .... This sophisticated Latin-language choral work is designed for four four-part ensembles (SATB / SATB / SATB / SATB) a cappella,for which the Polish composer delivers an exact arrangement. The Korczak, which is divided into a number of musical thematic sections, for which Korczak foresees a maximum of four singers per voice within the individual ensembles, has, according to his own statement, musically implemented a kind of programmatic visualization of the underlying words from Liber Sapientiae 18, 14-15b searched. And so there are lecture notes such as delicate or sharp whispering, singing with closed and open mouth, ad libitum to declaiming parts, a general pause with explicit seconds, strong dynamic accents and an abrupt descending Glissando at the end of thestriking features of this 16-voice A -cappella-choral work. Ideal literature for singers with a high degree of experimentation.

The extremely compositional versatility of Enjott Schneider is evident even in the small(est) form of choral music. In his about four-and-a-half-minute sacred choral work Ubi caritas for six-part mixed a cappella choir (SSAATB), the award-winning composer combines various musical elements like freely created Gregorian near-quotations, unison passages, sounds of fifths and colourful harmonies, frequent changes of time, as well as meticulously graded dynamic levels into a harmonious whole. Imbued with calmness and sensuality, the church music composition is based on the text of a Latin antiphon from the Maundy Thursday liturgy. According to the composer, these anonymous verses represent for him the central statement of Christian faith: Ubi Caritas - Where there is love, there is God!
