In his Chormusic auff Madrigal Manier (1652/53), the Zittau organist Hammerschmidt claimed Heinrich Schutz and his Geistliche Chor-Musik (1648) as his models. With his 31 motets, Hammerschmidt made an import ant contribution to the development of Protestant vocal music in Germany. The two works selected here exemplarily represent both the earlier, 16th century style as well as the newer, concertante style of writing.
