This book belongs to our collection of single issues from the ten-volume Gesualdo edition, which presented the composers complete works for the first time in a text-critical and practical version (with German prose translations of the vocal texts and aids for the pronunciation of the Italian). The single editions offer the most beautiful madrigals and sacred choral works in the customary editorial quality at a reasonable price.Tristis est anima mea (My Soul Is Sorrowful) was drawn from the 27 Responsories for the Passion Week which were published in their entirety in Vol. 7 of the Complete Edition (DV 4777). The bold expressiveness and imaginative interpretation of the text are brought to bear with particular compellingness in this motet by the princely Renaissance composer. Tristis est anima mea was included in 1998 in the list of optional contest works of the Fifth German Choral Competition.

Adaptation of the motet Tristis est anima mea, attributed to Johann Kuhnau. The motet Der Gerechte kommt um comes down to us as part of the Passion cantata Ein Lammlein geht und tragt die Schuld by Carl Heinrich Graun, into which movements by various other composers, including Bach and Telemann, were also later inserted. According to the research of Diethard Hellmann, editor of this edition, the motet was originally an a cappella composition by Johann Kuhnau with the text Tristis est anima mea, which then was adapted - most likely by Bach - with a new text and the addition of instrumental parts.

Johann Kuhnau's extant vocal works will be fully complete in the Breitkopf & Hartel catalogue in coming years. These are cantatas as a rule, but at least works with instrumental accompaniment. The Three Motets in this volume are therefore unique, including in addition to the well known Tristis est anima mea, also the two other extant Kuhnau motets Ach Gott, wie lasst du mich verstarren, as well as Gott hat uns nicht gesetzt zum Zorn. Each one, of five parts (with the tenor or canto part doubled), these masterpieces round out the picture of Johann Kuhnau, Johann Sebastian Bach's predecessor as St. Thomas cantor. Really interesting. Kuhnau shows a real feeling for the texts he is setting, with effective chromaticism in the doleful 'Tristis est anima mea'.(Jeremy Jackman, Choir & Organ).
