| 解説 | 八声の二重合唱、管弦楽、オルガンによる大規模な詩篇歌のセットです。ベルリン大聖堂のために書かれ、全編を貫く重層的な合唱様式と、ヘンデルを彷彿とさせる壮大なフーガが特徴です。自筆譜を精査し、本作特有のハープを含む色彩豊かな管弦楽法と合唱のバランスを精確に再現しました。大規模なアンサンブルにおいて、各パートの独立性と輝かしい響きを両立させる一助となります。 31，0 x 24，3 cm 〈出版社によるオリジナル解説〉 - Urtext edition of Mendelssohn’s last orchestral psalm - Bilingual Foreword (Ger/Eng) and Critical Commentary (Eng) - Words underlaid in both German and English - Piano reduction based on the first printed edition Mendelssohn’s setting of Psalm 98 was written in a few weeks to satisfy a commission in his new position as general music director of Prussia and was premiered by the Berlin Cathedral Choir on 1 January 1844. As he neither released the work for publication nor produced a vocal score， his psalm setting did not appear in print until after his death. For this edition the authoritative Mendelssohn specialist John Michael Cooper drew primarily on the autograph score with its many subsequent corrections and amendments. In this way it differs from many other editions， which tend to treat the autograph as a subordinate source. Rounding off the edition are an informative Foreword and a detailed Critical Commentary. The piano reduction is based on the first printed edition， published by F. Kistner and Evers & Co. in 1851. |
