International Heinrich-Schütz-Price for Carus and Bärenreiter
The organizers of the
Heinrich Schütz Music Festival yesterday announced that the 2022
International Heinrich Schütz Prize will go to the publishing houses
Carus and Bärenreiter. The director of the Heinrich Schütz Music
Festival, Dr. Christina Siegfried, explained
the decision for this year's prize winners: "The two publishing houses -
the Bärenreiter-Verlag Kassel and the Carus-Verlag Stuttgart - have
been facing a mammoth task under the sign of Sagittarius in a special
way for decades. Their work is the basis for
scholarship and music-making practice. In the SCHÜTZ22 festival year,
the appropriate moment seems to have come to honor this outstanding
achievement".
The award ceremony will take place on October 16, 2022 in Torgau, Saxony.

50 years of Carus – 500 years of choral music: Carus-Verlag celebrates landmark anniversary
Carus-Verlag will be 50 years old! In 1972 choral director Günter Graulich and his wife Waltraud Graulich founded Carus-Verlag and published Antonio Vivaldi’s “Gloria in D” RV 589 for choir and orchestra as their first edition – the first scholarly-critical music edition of this masterpiece. Today the catalog of this medium-sized publisher contains around 45,000 works – largely vocal – from five centuries of the European choral tradition, and in addition, books, CDs and apps. The edition of the “Gloria” has remained a bestseller in the Carus program.

Conductors, choral directors, and choral music fans can now benefit from a considerably expanded range of products from Carus-Verlag. Many sheet music editions from the leading choral music publisher are now also available in digital form. As well as this, additional materials for successful rehearsal and concert preparation are available for the first time. Following the successful introduction of the choir app “carus music” in 2015, Carus is taking the next step in digitisation as the first German music publisher to offer its customers an extensive program digitally.
