The collection Polyhymnia Caduceatrix & Panegyrica of 1619 is rightly regarded as the high point in Michael Praetorius's output. It combines Solennische Friedt- und Frewden-Concert: which Praetorius as a travelling musician had composed largely for festive occasions - he writes of Kayser: Konig: Chur: vnd Furstlichen zusammen Kunfften - and also for furnehme Capellen vnd Kirchen. In these chorale concerti the highly modern, Italian style and the Protestant chorale combine and form a symbiosis which showed the way forward for the history of German music. The chorale settings draw on influences from Venetian polychoral music, use ritornelli and employ obbligato instruments in a way which is beyond compare, even in contemporary Italy. Here we see a quite different side of the master from the composer of Es ist ein Ros entsprungen. And above all, Praetorius always remains a practical musician who ensures that these breathtaking choral concerti can also be effectively performed with smaller forces, sometimes considerably reduced ones. Praetorius gives the verses of the well-known Easter hymn Christ ist erstanden to the concertists (soloists or small choir), who can perform these in alternating scorings. At the beginning, between the verses, and at the end, a magnificent Halleluja occurs as a ritornello, which can be performed by up to 5 choirs - ad lib, of course. Score and part available separately - see item CA.1002700.

This late work by Michael Praetorius is characterized by a combination of the new Italian style with the Protestant chorale. The Puericinium, which appeared in 1621, the year of Praetorius' death, has a music-pedagogical component. Four children's voices (who would have been boys in Praetorius' time), ideally spread around the four corners of the church, sing the chorale line by line in turn, interrupted and ended with tutti passages in which an adult choir joins. The whole piece is accompanied by basso continuo and a four-part instrumental ensemble ad lib. The magnificent Komm heiliger Geist, Herre Gott is still suitable for performance by a children's choir and adult choir today; although adult sopranos would not have sung in church choirs in Praetorius' time, they can join in the melody line in the tutti passages.

In these chorale concerti the highly modern, Italian style and the Protestant chorale combine and form a symbiosis which showed the way forward for the history of German music. Even in the small-scale form of the chorale arrangement for two to three voices and basso continuo, Praetorius gives hints of the range of sound textures he is to use: the alternation between contrapuntal and homophonic styles of setting, duple and triple meter, and different dynamic. Nun lob, mein Seel, den Herren is available on the CD Praetorius: Gloria sei dir gesungen. Choralkonzerte (Carus 83.482).

He worked as Kapelmeister to the court at Wolffenbuttel, but he was also asked to serve in other places, includin Dresden.

Utilising Bach-esque chorales with solo lines this is a perfect piece to enhance your holiday program. One not to be missed! Het bekende koraal Es ist ein Ros entsprungen (Er is een roos ontloken) werd geschreven door de Duitse componist Michael Praetorius (1571-1621). Roland Kernen heeft op basis van dit koraal verscheidene variaties geschreven,die samen het luisterrijke werk Christmas Variations vormen. Na een pakkende, fortissimo opening wordt het koraal op verschillende manieren geëxposeerd. De eerste variatie is een lichtvoetige behandeling van het koraal. Dedaaropvolgende gedragen variatie vormt hiermee een mooi contrast. Na een kort tussenspel volgt het slot, waarin het koraal nog tweemaal in volle glorie de revue passeert. Het werk sluit daarmee net zo majestueus af als het begonRoland Kernen schrieb eine Reihe Variationen über den bekannten Choral Es ist ein Ros’ ensprungen von Michael Praetorius, die zusammen das großartige Werk Christmas Variations bilden. Nach einer reizvollen, sehr schnellen Eröffnung wird der Choral auf verschiedene Weisen präsentiert: zuerst fröhlich, dann feierlich.
