Like most of his compositions, Rolf Rudin's Latin-language Ave Crux, Spes Unica (Hail the Cross, Our Only Hope) for mixed choir, percussion and organ was commissioned for a special event - in this case to mark the inauguration of the new Bishop of Wurzburg, Dr. Friedhelm Hofmann. The dedicatees of the work composed in 2014 for four- to eight-part choir are the (former) Cathedral's director of music Martin Berger and the Choir of the Wurzburg Cathedral, two musical institutions of the region, which allows conclusions to be drawn about the high artistic value of this composition. Even the initial musical expression marking 'Atmospharisch bewegt' [Atmospherically emotional] points to the intense sensual tonal spheres in which the award-winning composer puts both singers and listeners in this c. 8-minute sacred work using words by Edith Stein.

With his musical setting Nachtlicher Himmel based on words from a letter by Vincent van Gogh, Rolf Rudin ventures into downright impressionist terrain. Just as the famous painter creates literary images with his letters and knows how to visualize landscapes and frames of mind, the award-winning composer knows how to musically capture such moods and atmospheres. His composition for two- to four-part women's choir (SSAA) and piano lives on dynamic nuances, changes of time, chromaticism and triplet figures as well as harp-like arpeggios which give the work a mystical quality. Due to its chord progressions with great chromaticism, the choral part of this c. 4-minute work contains some intonational obstacles which are worth negotiating while holding out the prospect of a unique sound experience.

Solemn, spherical, downright uplifting - these attributes apply in a special way to Rolf Rudin's Würzburg hallelujah. The polyphoniccoda composition for the hallelujah song GL 175.4 by Heinrich Rohr was created in 2006 as a commissioned composition for the girls' choir at Würzburg Cathedral. The prefixed unanimous intonation of Rohrsche Halleluja is followed by the award-winning composer's four- to five-part female choir (SSSAA). The praise of God finds its solemn conclusion with enchanting “otherworldly� � sounds. A church music miniature with a gooseflesh character, which is suitable for liturgical use as well as being detached from the liturgical context.
