This excellent arrangement by Robert van Beringen is of the well-known German chorale Wachet auf, ruft uns die Stimme, taken from the oratorio Paulus (St. Paul) by Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy (1809-1847). Although accredited to Mendelssohn it is thought the melody was in fact written by the pastor and poet Philipp Nicolai in 1599. Robert van Beringen’s arrangement perfectly captures the biblical story of St. Paul. Robert van Beringen bewerkte het bekende koraal Wachet auf, ruft uns die Stimme uit Paulus, het eerste oratorium van Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy. Mendelssohn liet zich graag door de muziek van Johann Sebastian Bach inspireren.Pas vijfentwintig jaar oud zette hij het dramatische bijbelverhaal over Paulus zeer overtuigend op muziek. Robert van Beringen maakte hiervan een bekoorlijke versie voor blaasorkest.Robert van Beringen bearbeitete den bekannten Choral Wachet auf, ruft uns die Stimme aus Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdys erstem Oratorium Paulus. Der erst 25-jährige Mendelssohn, der sich gerne von Johann Sebastian Bachs Musik inspirieren ließ, setzte die dramatische biblische Geschichte von Paulus sehr überzeugend in Musik um. Auch in der Blasorchesterfassung von Robert van Beringen bestechend gut! Paulus (1834-1836) est le premier oratorio de Mendelssohn. Il raconte la vie de Saint Paul. L'ouverture est une fantaisie sur le célèbre choral Wachet auf, ruft uns die Stimme. Rarement donné, l’oratorio Paulus est pourtant significatif du romantisme allemand. L’arrangement de Robert van Beringen nous fait redécouvrir ce chef-d’œuvre oublié. Paulus (1834-1836), il primo oratorio di Mendelssohn, narra la vita di San Paolo. L’ouverture è una fantasia sul celebre corale Wachet auf, ruft uns die Stimme. L’oratorio Paulus è rappresentativo del romanticismo tedesco. L’arrangiamento di Robert van Beringen ci fa riscoprire questo capolavoro spesso dimenticato.

While Felix Mendelssohn (1809-1847) modestly refers to Hear My Prayer (Hör' mein Bitten) in G Major, WoO 15, as a trifle, it is among his most popular works for chorus. On the autograph score, he inscribed the following: A sacred Solo, for a Soprano and Chorus, with Organ accompaniment, composed for W. Bartholomew, Esq., by Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy. William Bartholomew wrote the text, which is derived on Psalm 55, and requested that Mendelssohn set it to music. This version premiered on January 8, 1845, at Crosby Hall in London. In 1847, Mendelssohn orchestrated the work, but he passed before he could hear this version, which premiered on December 21, 1848, in Dublin. Score and parts for orchestral accompaniment available separately. This edition adds reheasal numbers that match between the score, parts, and choral score.

Although more famous for his incidental music to A Midsummer Night's Dream, Mendelssohn was commissioned by the King of Prussia to provide music for Racine's religious drama Athalie, which includes the War March of the Priests. The march tune draws its energy from a repeating triplet figure in the introduction, and features a nice legato contrasting section. A great opportunity to teach style and nuance! (2:45).
