sit thou at my right hand,

The Lord will send forth the sceptre of thy power out of Sion:
rule thou in the midst of thine enemies.
With thee is the principality in the day of thy strength in the brightness of the saints:

Thou art a priest for ever

Der Herr sprach zu meinem Herrn:
Setze dich zu meiner Rechten,
bis ich deine Feinde
zum Schemel deiner Füße lege.
Der Herr wird das Zepter deiner Macht ausstrecken aus Zion:
Herrsche mitten unter deinen Feinden!
Wenn du dein Heer aufbietest, wird dir dein Volk
willig folgen in heiligem Schmuck.
Deine Kinder werden dir geboren wie der Tau aus der Morgenröte.
Der Herr hat geschworen, und es wird ihn nicht gereuen:
Du bist ein Priester ewiglich nach der Weise Melchisedeks.
Der Herr zu deiner Rechten
wird zerschmettern die Könige am Tage seines Zorns.
Er wird richten unter den Heiden, wird viele erschlagen,...

Dixit Dominus Domino meo:
Sede a dextris meis:
Donec ponam inimicos tuos,
scabellum pedum tuorum.
Virgam virtutis tuae emittet Dominus ex Sion:
dominare in medio inimicorum tuorum.
Tecum principium in die virtutis tuae
in splendoribus sanctorum:
ex utero ante luciferum genui te.
Juravit Dominus, et non poenitebit eum:
Tu es sacerdos in aeternum secundum ordinem Melchisedech.
Dominus a dextris tuis,
confregit in die irae suae reges.
Judicabit in nationibus, implebit ruinas:
conquasabit capita in terra multorum.
De torrente in via bibet:
propterea exaltabit caput.

Konrad Küster (2000)
Translation (abridged): John CoombsThey occupy a position between Mozart’s settings of the Mass and his single-movement “shorter church works”: the substantial, multi-movement litanies and psalm cycles written while he was still at Salzburg. Undoubtedly their composition allowed him greater musical freedom than the settings of the Mass; because the latter were written for use at services which were organized down to the time allowed for the individual sections, the music had to be constructed along carefully defined lines.
On the other hand the vespers and litanies were not performed for Sunday or festival Masses, but in different liturgical circumstances. For the Offices of the Canonical Hours, even in the days of Gregorian plainsong, far more elaborate chants were used than at High Mass; vespers (the service at...

Sie stehen zwischen den Messzyklen und den einsätzigen »kleineren Kirchenwerken« Mozarts: die umfangreichen, mehrsätzigen Litaneien und Psalmzyklen aus seiner Salzburger Zeit. Unverkennbar war in ihnen die musikalische Freiheit des Komponisten größer als in den Messzyklen: Weil diese sich in den Messgottesdienst einzufügen hatten, der bis in Details seines zeitlichen Ablaufes durchorganisiert war, bewegt sich auch die Musik in einem klar definierten Rahmen. Je nach Bedeutung des Gottesdienstes ermöglichte dieser zwar die Bildung eigenständiger Sätze (in der Missa solemnis), konnte aber auch die musikalischen Formen so begrenzen, wie es für die Missa brevis typisch ist; wenn beispielsweise am Ende von Gloria und Credo fugische Elemente entfaltet werden, dann nur als Andeutung weiter reichender Konzepte, und wenn zu den Worten »Et incarnatus est« der Eindruck eines eigenen

Composer
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
| 1756-1791As the son of the deputy Kapellmeister to the Salzburg Prince-Archbishop, Mozart was constantly surrounded by church music in his youth. On his travels Mozart became familiar with Italian church music, and later in Vienna he studied the works of Bach and Handel. After moving to Vienna he was faced with the new challenges of composing opera and piano concertos, and significantly the “C Minor Mass” KV 427, the greatest sacred work of the first Vienna years, remained unfinished. The last period of his life again shows a change of direction to church music: Mozart successfully applied to succeed the terminally ill Leopold Hoffmann as Kapellmeister at St Stephen's Cathedral, but he was unable to take up the position as he died before Hoffmann. A gem such as the “Ave verum” KV 618 and the incomplete Requiem KV 626 give us an idea of what Mozart might have achieved as a composer of sacred music if he had taken up this important position.
