Jubilate Deo
Offertorium
Louis Spohr employs for his „Offertorium“ the words of the Entrance Antiphon. These are part of the Proper Chant, and here, Spohr sets the verses 1 and 2 of Psalm 65 (66) to music. Such free offertories had been a common practice since the seventeenth century. This first edition of the work follows the Breslau parts by carefully comparing them to the Kassel material.
