Tota pulchra es, Maria
Offertory from the Missa sacra op. 147 1852
In his Missa sacra, Op. 147, the Protestant Robert Schumann included the solo offertory hymn “Tota pulchra es, Maria”, entirely in the Romantic Catholic tradition of devotion to Mary. This wonderfully intimate movement for solo soprano, solo cello and organ can also be performed on its own, e.g. in church service or at a Marian feast.

Composer
Robert Schumann
| 1810-1856Robert Schumann is still primarily known as a composer of piano and lieder and as a symphonic composer. In his later creative years, however, he saw the composition of choral music as an important focus of his work. Even today, it is important to discover a largely unknown Schumann, whose choral music masterfully combines popular appeal and artistic ambition. Carus offers Schumann's complete works for mixed choir and for female choir a cappella and with piano. They demonstrate his love of experimentation, his sensitivity in the selection and musical realisation of the texts and, last but not least, his independent choral style, which places particular emphasis on refined details in the composition.
