Heinrich Schütz: Domini est terra [Gottes ist der Erdkreis]: (Arr. Paul Horn): Chœur Mixte et Piano/Orgue

For a long time the only known copy of this magnificent psalm setting was in a manuscript in Königsberg University library, where it was ascribed to Heinrich Schütz. This copy is now missing. But in 2008 Martin Lubenow was able to demonstrate that this composition – without the introductory Sinfonia and scored for somewhat smaller forces – came from a collection by Johann Stadelmayr printed in 1645. The composition has lost none of its splendor because of this, rather it reveals the largely unknown Johann Stadlmayr as one of the most important contemporaries of Heinrich Schütz.
