“Et exspecto resurrectionem mortuorum” ... the hope for the resurrection of the dead as a Gregorian antiphon is connected with the Pentecostal hymn “Nun bitten wir den Heiligen Geist” (Now we plead to the Holy Spirit) in such a way that a six-part choir could also participate. Lyrics: “Now we plead to the Holy Spirit for the right faith most of all; that he may protect us at our end, when we return home from this affliction.”
Peter Michael Hamel
A choral score is available digitally for the ad-libitum participating choir.
Separate edition from the collection Orgelmusik in Zeiten von Corona (Carus 18.220/00)
