About Denn also spricht der Herr
The prophet Isaiah's words, 'Thus says the Lord,' begin this powerful motet. The text paints a comforting scene: peace extended like a river, and the glory of the nations flowing in. The composer evokes this promise of abundance and restoration through rich SSATB harmonies. The music suggests tenderness and support as the text describes being carried and held, offering solace and hope. This sacred German motet is ideal for a choir seeking music with a profound spiritual message and expressive vocal writing, bringing a message of divine peace and care to the listener.
