Die Sieben Worte. Composed by Cesar Auguste Franck. Edited by Wolfgang Hochstein. This edition: Paperbound. French Sacred Music. Die Sieben Worte (Kart) (Lat/Engl). Sacred vocal music, Oratorios, Holy Week, Stations of the cross (Seven Words). Vocal score. FWV. 56 pages. Duration 45 minutes. Carus Verlag #CV 40.095/03. Published by Carus Verlag (CA.4009503).
ISBN 9790007061449. Language: Latin/English.
Unlike the well-known settings of the "Seven Last Words" by Schutz or Haydn, in his opulently scored composition Franck provides commentary to the words of Jesus with excerpts from the Old and New Testaments as well as from portions of the "Stabat Mater". In his transposition of the Latin text into music Franck reveals a rich palette of compositional parameters: "different-sized ensembles, exciting orchestration, formal variety and sophisticated harmony. Laments, simple passages for the choir in unison, passages with great drama, melodic shapes filled with sweetness convey to the listener a multi-layered impression of a composition stamped by a strongly personal will to expression." Wurttembergische Blatter fur Kirchenmusik 1/1991. Score available separately - see item CA.4009500.
