Friede auf Erden op. 13 is considered Arnold Schönberg's last tonal composition and is one of the few choral works of the Second Viennese School. The first sketches for his 2nd String Quartet, a key work of atonal music, were written on the same day that Schönberg completed op. 13. Even though Schönberg later orchestrated "Friede auf Erden", he intended the movement to be performed a cappella.

The planned premiere in 1908 was canceled at short notice due to insufficient rehearsals. Franz Schreker took on the next attempt in 1911 and requested a string orchestra accompaniment from Schönberg to support the choir, particularly with the intonation. Nowadays, "Friede auf Erden" is usually performed a cappella by powerful chamber choirs. With carus music, the demanding voice leading in the context of the multi-layered overall sound can be practiced excellently - so that nothing stands in the way of rehearsals and a successful performance.

Carus Choir Coach offers choir singers the unique opportunity to individually rehearse their choir voice in the overall sound of choir and instruments. A download album with all choral parts is available for each voice part. The Carus Choir Coach is based on recordings by renowned interpreters who have performed from the carefully prepared Carus Urtext edition. The choral movements are available in three versions:
-,Original recording
-,Coach: each part is played along on the piano, original recording in the background
-,Coach in slow mode: by reducing the tempo of the Coach to 70% of the original, complicated parts can be practiced effectively.
