History


Bruckner composed the motet in c.1854 during his stay in St. Florian Abbey. The original manuscript is lost. An autograph voice score is stored in the archive of the abbey.[1]

The motet was first published in band II/2, pp. 256–258 of the Göllerich/Auer biography.[1] It is put in Band XXI/18 of the Gesamtausgabe.[2]


Music


The work of 29 bars in B-flat major, as edited in the current Gesamtausgabe,[2] is scored for SATB choir, 2 violins, 2 trumpets and organ.[1]

On 25 June 2017 a new edition of the score by Cohrs, prepared for the Anton Bruckner Urtext Gesamtausgabe,[3] with "reconstructed parts " of viola, cello and contrabass, and adding of timpani has been premiered by Łukasz Borowicz with the RIAS Kammerchor and the Akademie für Alte Musik Berlin.[4]
