Drei geistliche Lieder for alto solo, choir and organ (organ version) by Felix Bartholdy Mendelssohn 4-Part - Sheet Music

By Felix Bartholdy Mendelssohn

In 1840, Mendelssohn composed the Three Sacred Songs on an English paraphrase of the 13th Psalm for solo alto, choir and organ. The text was written by the English legal scholar and music lover Charles B. Broadley, who commissioned the work. Mendelssohn specifically wanted to match the tone of the English Verse Anthem with the these songs. The Three Sacred Songs soon appeared in print in England and Germany (also with a German text). The organ part can also be played on the piano. The Carus edition contains the contemporary German text as well as a modern English text.In 1842/43, at Broadley's request, Mendelssohn created an orchestral version of the Three Songs and added a final fugue to the piece. This four-movement orchestral version was only published after Mendelssohn's death as Hymne op. 96. The orchestral version is also available from Carus (score (Carus 40.166), piano reduction (Carus 40.166/53), choral score (Carus 40.166/05) and orchestral parts (Carus 40.166/19). The fugue, which Mendelssohn newly composed for the orchestral version (Hymne), is available separately as an organ reduction (Carus 40.166/04).
