In this occasionally unusual, expressive work, Cherubini sensitively follows the drama of the psalm texts, on which the work is based. In concert the work is suitable as an impressive pendant to the masses and requiem settings of Cherubini, Haydn, or Mozart, and also in combination with the great sacred works of the 19th century.

Reviews
Die vorliegende, sorgfältige Edition des Carus-Verlags trägt zur Neubewertung Cherubinis bei, der in der Musikgeschichtsschreibung bislang vorwiegend als Opernkomponist gesehen wird[...]
Musica Sacra, 6/2012
Wo der erste Teil noch beinahe harmlos bombastisch ist, ist der zweite Teil mit dem Tenorsolo (oder Chortenor) schon ganz hübsch, und der dritte für Chor ist dann richtig zündend.
Württembergische Blätter für Kirchenmusik, Nr. 5 /2012
[...] sorgfältig gesetzt und gut lesbar [...]
