Heinrich von Herzogenberg’s interest in the motet form based on a cantus firmus can be traced back to the middle years of his tenure in Leipzig (1875-1885). For three of the four chorale motets (Nos. 1, 3, 4) he chose hymns which were also known as “traditional melodies” outside a liturgical context and, in two cases (Nos. 3 and 4), were sung by both faiths. Each of the four chorale motets are concerned with suffering and death. With regard to the size of the choir, Herzogenberg envisioned a large mixed choir. Therefore, larger choirs can also sing the motets a cappella.
