| 解説 | 混声合唱とオーケストラのための宗教合唱曲で、対位法的な声部の絡みと明瞭なハーモニーが特徴です。原典版ヴォーカルスコアは各声部の旋律やリズムを正確に示し、演奏者は合唱とオーケストラのバランスを把握しやすくなっています。簡潔なテキスト設定によりフレーズの対比が明確で、表現の緊張感や柔らかさを自在に調整できる点も魅力です。 27，0 x 19，0 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 The first great orchestral psalm 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. |
