Music for unaccompanied choir features very little in the works of the violin virtuoso and composer Louis Spohr (1784-1859), although he used the chorus to great effect, particularly in his early Romantic operas. Now, Clytus Gottwald has transcribed three of Spohr's songs with piano accompaniment for five-part mixed choir. The texts are by Goethe, Amalia Schoppe, and Uhland. Spohr's music, stylistically typical of a period of musical transition with its indefinable qualities, offers in a special way starting points for Gottwald's technique of arranging, influenced as it is by contemporary music. Gottwald's transcriptions of songs and instrumental works for vocal ensemble, distinguished by their highly sophisticated sound, have become firmly established in choral repertoire throughout the world in recent years.

Louis Spohr's only Mass is among the most important works of post-classical church music. In this a cappella Mass Spohr brought together harmoniously and with great skill the then current interest in baroque constructional techniques and the quest for an individual, contemporary style of composition. The result is a work which sometimes suggests Mendelssohn, and which offers an accomplished choir impressive music both for church services and for concerts. Score available separately - see item CA.9124000.
