When it was possible to celebrate the Catholic Mass in the German language as well, Bertold Hummel wrote his motet Ehre sei Gott for mixed four-part choir. This piece is a 'German gloria' and can be performed liturgically in a Mass.Hummel follows traditional examples: The text, full of contrasts, is redesigned - sentence by sentence - with new musical ideas. In doing so, he reveals his extraordinary ability to write easy-to-sing music of high quality which delights choirs and listeners alike.The six-minute piece was premiered at the Cathedral of Wurzburg. The present new edition also contains a singable translation in English.

Andreas Pieper's overall artistic aim to 'build a bridge of confidence to the world behind things' with his music can be heard clearly in his setting of Tollite iugum meum. The Latin-language motet for mixed a cappella choir (SATB) for the Feast of the Sacred Heart (Friday after Corpus Christi) is based on verses from the Gospel according to Matthew (Mt. 11,29). Permeated by changes of time and key, yet easy to master by amateur choirs, the piece is ideal for use in the church's liturgy. The devotion of the Sacred Heart of Jesus centres on the sin and thus also on the sinfulness of man, which is musically realized here through a steady and moderate tempo, with the sinful man standing before God without any instrumental means, completely naked so to speak.

With Zwei lateinische Marienmotetten for mixed a cappella choir (SATB) and interlude for organ or string quintet, Andreas Pieper has created two gems of Marian devotion which are perfect for being used in church services. The two four-part chants pay homage to the Virgin Mary and refer to two different solemnities of the Roman Catholic Church celebrated in her honour. Whereas Assumpta est Maria is a motet for the Feast of the Assumption of Mary on 15 August, Benedicta es tu, virgo Maria refers to the Feast of the Immaculate Conception celebrated every year on 8 December. Both choral settings can be easily mastered by ambitious church choirs, and the interlude and postlude for organ or string quintet of Assumpta est Maria, the easier one of the two motets, can be easily performed even by amateur musicians.
