| 解説 | 四人の独唱、混声合唱、二管編成の管弦楽による詩篇歌のセットです。対位法を駆使した合唱と抒情的な独唱が交互に現れ、重層的な響きを構築します。自筆譜に加え、1835年の改訂を反映しており、特に管楽器の細かな音型や強弱が精確に再現されました。各声部の役割を視覚的に把握しやすく、作品本来の緊密なアンサンブルと均衡ある響きを導き出します。 31，0 x 24，3 cm 〈出版社によるオリジナル解説〉 - Informative Foreword in the score (Ger/Eng) - Text underlay in two languages (Lat/Ger) - Piano reduction by the composer Mendelssohn’s first great orchestral psalm took almost six years to complete， from the initial sketches and the first version of 1830 to the final version of 1835. Its premiere which took place at the Leipzig Gewandhaus did not take place until 1838. Unlike his other orchestral psalms， Mendelssohn took the Latin words from the Vulgate as his principal text which stems from Psalm 113. When he later prepared his own German translation， he made use of Psalm 115 from the Luther Bible. This edition by the leading Mendelssohn authority John Michael Cooper incorporates all the relevant sources. In accordance with the work’s genesis， the vocal parts are underlaid with the Latin text， and the German text appears underneath. Rounding off this Urtext edition are an informative Foreword and detailed Critical Commentary. The piano reduction stems from Mendelssohn himself. |
