Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy (1809 - 1847):
ZUM ABENDSEGEN
Zum Abendsegen (To the Evening Service) was composed in 1833. It is a moving, contrapuntal miniature in A minor, one of the most ancient in feel of all Mendelssohns choral works, which possesses a poignant intensity arising out of his subtle handling of contrapuntally overlapping textures. Mendelssohns mastery of temporal pacing ensures that although the work builds towards and relaxes away from a central climax in little more than two-and-a-half minutes, nothing feels remotely forced.
Herr, sei gnädig unserm Fleh'n,
und erfülle uns mit deinem Geist.
Herr, sei gnädig unserm Fleh'n,
und schreib in unser Herz dein Gebot.
Herr, erhör uns!
Lord, have mercy upon us,
And incline our heart to keep thy law.
Have mercy, Lord,
And write all these thy laws in our hearts,
We beseech thee!
