für Männerchor

The Choir Library for Men’s Choir includes distinctly more secular than sacred music. In this, the publishing house’s program reflects the great tradition of men’s choirs with a predominantly secular repertoire. It inspired many composers to write music for this setting, among them Franz Schubert, Robert Schumann and Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy. But also lesser-known composers of the romantic period such as Johann Evangelist Habert and Othmar Schoeck created works for men’s choirs. More modern composers like Jean Sibelius, Johann Nepomuk David and Siegfried Thiele, also represented here, continue this tradition into the 20th century. Sacred Music I. Sacred Songs and Chants II.
