This nine-movement psalm composition allows all the participants to shine, in some cases with rich virtuosity: the string ensemble in the opening “Sonata”; the solo singers and choir in the chaconne-like first vocal movement, “Singet dem Herrn”; also the solo singers in two duets [alto + tenor, soprano + alto], an alto solo and an extensive bass solo; the choir in two further movements a fugue on the 6th verse of the psalm “Es stehet herrlich und prächtig für ihm” and the concluding movement in two sections, “Betet an den Herrn,” which ends with a brilliant fugue on “Es fürchte ihn alle Welt.” This is a festive sacred work suitable for many occasions [including weekdayEpiphany psalm services and for services on the 4th Sunday after Easter]. The present edition presents the source material in revides form, transcribed into current editorial and performance usage.
