Heinrich Schütz's Alleluja! Lobet den Herren, Performed by La Chapelle Rhénane, Directed by Benoît Haller


Psalm 150 provides the text for the above 1619 motet by Heinrich Schütz (1585 - 1672), one of the pinnacles of the High Church Lutheranism in which this blogger was raised. This student of Giovanni Gabrieli (c. 1554/1557 – 1612) is commemorated on the Lutheran calendar of saints.
