About Frau Musika
The composer Friedrich Rochlitz celebrates the power and joy of music in this German part-song for TTBB choir. The text, translated, urges us to honour Frau Musika (Lady Music), a gift from God to increase our delight and banish dark spirits, praised in ever-changing ways. It speaks of music’s divine origin and its ability to uplift the soul. Rochlitz’s setting captures this celebratory spirit, offering a robust and engaging work that would be a powerful addition to any TTBB programme. The piece provides a rich opportunity for the choir to explore dynamic contrasts and strong choral sound, making it a rewarding challenge for both performers and audience.
