Erna Woll

Wohin ich immer reise

The atmospheric choral work "Wohin ich immer reise" was written by the composer and church musician Erna Woll. In her characteristic musical language, which combines simplicity with deep expressiveness, she sets a text to music that focuses on the motif of wandering and the certainty of divine protection on all paths. The composition is characterized by clear, often folk-song-like melodies and subtle harmonies that make the trust in God's constant companionship musically tangible. As a work of moderate modernism, it is particularly appreciated for its singability and contemplative atmosphere and is a valuable addition to the sacred and secular repertoire of many choirs.
