Description:
Hessenberg studied in Leipzig with Günther Raphael and was a singer in the Bach Choir under the direction of Karl Straube. Later he was professor of music theory and composition at the Frankfurt Musikhochschule. It was particularly in the field of sacred and secular choral music that he created important and frequently sung works, among them the well-known motet 'O Herr mache mich zum Werkzeug deines Friedens' (C 37176). The present two three-part folk-song settings (SABar) are composed in a polyphonic style and are suitable even for small choirs. They would fit in a mixed choral music programme with old and new masters. Content: Tanz mir nicht mit meiner Jungfer Käthen - Ich fahr dahin.
