| Title: |
Jerusalem plantabis vineam |
|
 |
| Remarks: |
From the clarion call of the opening with its poignant
rising minor 6th motive on the word “Jerusalem”,
to the brilliant scales surging through the choir on
the phrase “Rise up, Zion”, and the somber
exhortation of the concluding measures of the first part,
the composer brings to bear all his powers of invention
to convey the breathless excitement of this Advent text
as vividly and magnificently as possible. | |
