Johann Hermann Schein’s Israelsbrünnlein With Johann Hermann Schein’s Fontana d’Israel. Israelsbrünnlein, published in Leipzig in 1623, we have a supreme achievement not only among the works of this composer, who had been Thomaskantor in Leipzig since 1616, but also for the entire body of German music written during the first half of the 17th century.Among 26 motets written “in the Italian madrigal manner” 23 are settings of Old Testament texts, a fact to which the collection owes its title. The source for the text of this collection is the inexhaustible “fountain” of the Psalms, the books of Moses, the Prophets, the Song of Solomon, and other books of the Old Testament and the Apocrypha.

Johann Hermann Scheins Israelsbrünnlein Mit Johann Hermann Scheins Fontana d’Israel. Israels Brünnlein, 1623 in Leipzig gedruckt, besitzen wir eine kompositorische Gipfelleistung nicht nur innerhalb des Schaffens des seit 1616 in Leipzig als Thomaskantor wirkenden Komponisten, sondern darüber hinaus auch der deutschen Musik der ersten Hälfte des 17. Jahrhunderts.Unter 26 „auff Italian-Madrigalische Manir“ geschriebenen Motetten finden sich 23 auf alttestamentliche Texte komponierte, was der Sammlung den Namen gab. Textquelle dieser Sammlung ist das unversiegbare „Brünnlein“ der Psalmen, sind die Mose-Bücher, die Propheten, das Hohelied und andere Bücher des Alten Testaments und der alttestamentlichen Apokryphen. Drei Stücken liegen neutestamentliche bzw. andere christliche Texte zugrunde. Sie könnten möglicherweise den Anfang einer Werksammlung auf Texte des Neuen Testaments
