The fourth volume of Johann Adam Hiller's editions of motets and arias continues where the previous volumes left off, with further motets by Graun, Hiller, Homilius and Rolle. Once again the motets of Theodor Christlieb Reinhold are represented. Reinhold was Kantor at the Dresden Kreuzkirche during the time Bach was Thomaskantor in Leipzig. This volume concludes with four senstive choral arias by the early Bach admirer Christian Friedrich Penzel after psalm texts which appeared at that time as poetic translations by Johann Andreas Cramer.

The seven motets found in the Yale University Music Library in 1994 are believed to have been written by Telemann in his early years, possibly in the decade between 1712 and 1721, when Telemann was Church Music Director in Frankfurt/Main. The collection consists of four chorale motets and three works in which the texts are set section by section. The division in two books (DV 7929/30) reflects their orientation on the church year.

The compositions of Guillaume Bouzignac (ca. 1587 to sometime after 1643) were important for the development of French sacred music before the time of Jean-Baptiste Lully. Nonetheless his work, surrounded by mystery, has survived in only four manuscripts containing only eleven motets which are ascribed by name to Bouzignac. The present edition contains four a cappella motets for the Christmas season. These are sacred stories, brief scenes, in which the soprano voice sings in dialog with the other voices of the choir.

The fact that Pascal Martine is a real expert in the field of sacred choral music shows once again in the 'Three Motets' for mixed a-cappella choir (SATB) by the Mainz-based composer and (choir) teacher. The three sacred motets on verses by the English bishop and hymn writer Reginald Heber (1783-1826) are characterized by a very individual dense and atmospheric musical language. Thus, they musically dwell on the contemplative character of the three English-language poems perfectly which is typical especially of the two prayers 'Evening Hymn' and 'O most merciful'. The four-part songs are mainly homophonic and perfect for church services.

The final part from 1791 took on a new direction, as was reflected in the formulation of the title: Four-part Latin and German choral settings for use by choirs in churches and schools. The first part, or the motet collection, part VI, from Johann Adam Hiller, Ducal Music Director of Kurland, Cantor of St. Thomas School and Music Director of both of the main churches in Leipzig. (additional parts were not published). The volume precedes a foreword, in which Hiller relates why he composed and published the present pieces. Of special interest is the great amount of information about church music and liturgical practice of this time, which he in part could shape, but in the face of whose traditions he also sometimes felt powerless. So this foreword belongs among the most important documents on the living practice of Protestant church music in the last years of the 18th century.

This volume is devoted to Byrd's Latin sacred works which have survived only in manuscript sources. Its contents range from those motets such as Alleluya. Confitemini Domino judged to be among the composer's earliest, to works of the 1560s - Ad Dominum cum tribularer for example - and two later cantus firmus respond motets that may also be dated to this period.
