... so weit die Wolken gehen (... as far as the clouds reach) (2016) represents a chorale arrangement of the song about the Good Shepherd, framed by supplementary verses from Psalms 34 and 36. Flute and organ contribute to the interpretation of the text by independent motivic lines. Verses 2 and 4 are sung by the solo contralto; structural variety is created by means of free melodic lines. At the end, the interaction between soloist and choir, as well as the compression of the setting results in an enthralling intensification.
