Nachdem Schütz nach dem Tode Gabrielis von seinem Aufenthalt in Venedig in seine Heimat zurückkehrte, begann er die erworbenen Eindrücke musikalisch zu verarbeiten. Vor allem das mehrchörige Musizieren war hierbei sehr wichtig, wofür die zwischen 1615 und 1619 entstandenen Psalmen Davids ein Beleg sind.

  • O sing unto the Lord a new song; for he hath done marvellous things: his right hand, and his holy arm, hath gotten him the victory. The Lord hath made known his salvation: his righteousness hath he openly shewed in the sight of the heathen. He hath remembered his mercy and his truth toward the house of Israel: all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God. Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all the earth: make a loud noise, and rejoice, and sing praise. Sing unto the Lord with the harp; with the harp, and the voice of a psalm. With trumpets and sound of cornet make a joyful noise before the Lord, the King. Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein. Let the floods clap their hands: let the hills be joyful together. Before the Lord; for he cometh to judge the earth: with righteousness shall he judge the world, and the people with equity.
    Ps 98

  • Singet dem Herrn ein neues Lied, denn er tut Wunder. Er sieget mit seiner Rechten und mit seinem heilgen Arm. Der Herr lässet sein Heil verkündigen; vor den Völkern lässt er seine Gerechtigkeit offenbaren. Er gedenket an seine Gnade und Wahrheit dem Hause Israel. Aller Welt Enden sehen das Heil unsers Gottes. Jauchzet dem Herren alle Welt; singet, rühmet und lobet. Lobet den Herren mit Harfen, mit Harfen und mit Psalmen! Mit Trompeten und Posaunen jauchzet vor dem Herrn, dem Könige. Das Meer brause und das was drinnen ist, der Erdboden und die drauf wohnen. Die Wasserströme frohlocken, und alle Berge sei’n fröhlich vor dem Herrn; denn er kommt, das Erdreich zu richten. Er wird den Erdboden richten mit Gerechtigkeit und die Völker mit Recht. Ehre sei dem Vater …
    Ps 98
    Ehre sei dem Vater und dem Sohn und auch dem Heilgen Geiste, wie es war im Anfang, jetzt und immerdar und von Ewigkeit zu Ewigkeit. Amen.

    Translation: Elizabeth Robinson

    “intended for singing”
    The “Psalmen Davids” and the art of consolation Heinrich Schütz was fortunate. In the years around 1600 the number of portents of the end of the world increased. And this would also naturally affect the Dresden court, even if it sometimes seemed to be in a world of its own. Constellations of stars, curious events, cometary impacts – all these happenings were rapidly broadcast through the mass media of the Baroque – pamphlets and articles. And the more frequently there were signs giving cause for concern, the nearer the predicted end approached. In the mid-16th century, 2046 was marked out as the end. But at the time when Schütz took up his post in Dresden, the year 1625 was regarded as the point in time when the ‘last trumpet’ would sound. None of this happened – as stated, he was fortunate,

    „zum singen gemeint“
    Die Psalmen Davids und die Kunst des Zuspruchs Heinrich Schütz hatte Glück. In den Jahren um 1600 mehrten sich die Anzeichen für den Weltuntergang. Und der würde natürlich auch den Dresdner Hof betreffen, auch wenn dieser mitunter als eigener Kosmos erscheinen mochte. Sternenkonstellationen, kuriose Ereignisse, Kometeneinschläge – alle diese Geschehnisse verbreiteten sich rasant über die Massenmedien des Barock: Flugblätter und Sonderdrucke. Und je häufiger die besorgniserregenden Zeichen, desto näher rückte das prognostizierte Ende. Mitte des 16. Jahrhunderts war noch 2046 als Ende markiert. Zu jener Zeit, als Schütz in Dresden sein Amt antrat, galt das Jahr 1625 als Zeitpunkt, an dem die ‚letzte Posaune‘ erklingen würde. All das trat nicht ein – wie gesagt, er hatte Glück, aber eine Prognose bewahrheitete

Additional product information
  • Heinrich Schütz is regarded as the first German musician of European stature. As a choirboy from 1599 at the court of Landgrave Moritz of Hessen-Kassel, he received a thorough education. In 1608 he began a law degree in Marburg, but broke this off in 1609 in order, with the support of the Landgrave, to study composition with Giovanni Gabrieli, organist at St Mark’s in Venice. In 1613 Schütz returned to Kassel, but two years later was enticed away by Elector Johann Georg I of Saxony to the Dresden court as “Organist und Director der Musica”, where he held the position of Hofkapellmeister (court Kapellmeister) from 1617 until his death. Schütz’s great cycles of vocal works marked the high point of his reputation in Germany and northern Europe. But these represent only part of Schütz’s output; individual works are represented in printed collections with works by other composers, others only survive in manuscript, and much has been lost. The Stuttgart Schütz Edition makes available Schütz’s complete oeuvre, and all works are also published in practical Urtext editions. Personal details
  • The publisher, church musician and teacher Günter Graulich is one of the major personalities in German publishing of the post-war period. With his wife Waltraud he founded Carus-Verlag Stuttgart in 1972, which he built up from a 2-person family firm to a medium-sized business with around 60 employees. A trained church musician and Kantor for many years at the Matthäuskirche Stuttgart, he also directed the Motettenchor Stuttgart for 50 years. With his choir he made LP and CD recordings, and undertook numerous concert tours to other European countries and America. Personal details
  • Paul Horn war ein deutscher Kirchenmusiker, Organist, Komponist und Musikwissenschaftler. Er studierte Kirchenmusik und Orgel an der Evangelischen Kirchenmusikschule Esslingen am Neckar bei Hans-Arnold Metzger und Musikwissenschaft, Theologie und Geschichte an der Universität Tübingen. Seine berufliche Laufbahn begann als Kantor an der Evangelischen Michaelskirche in Stuttgart-Degerloch. 1954 wurde er Kantor an der Evangelischen Stadtkirche Ravensburg, eine Position, die er bis zu seiner Pensionierung innehatte. Als Musikwissenschaftler arbeitete Horn bis ins hohe Alter eng mit Carus zusammen. So stammen zahlreiche Carus-Klavierauszüge aus seiner Feder. Personal details
