Among the numerous Requiem settings of the 19th century, only very few are scored for male voices. Although several compositions [by, amongst others, Max Reger and Peter Cornelius] are designated ‘Requiem’, these are usually only single-movement works, not settings of the entire text of the ordinary. To date, only four complete settings for male choir - by Luigi Cherubini, Franz Liszt, Hugo Kaun and Lorenzo Perosare - are known. With the first edition of the Requiem by Johann Christian Heinrich Rinck for solo voices, male choir and organ, a further work is being made available for performance. Rinck, celebrated as the "Rhenish Bach" and as a worldwide famous composer, wrote it in1836.
