The two compositions for double choir from the 15th/16th century should serve our wind musicians in the present version to play together with the organ in church services and church concerts. However, they are also suitable for performance without the organ, whereby the two choirs can also be spatially separated. The instrumentation was done in such a way that very diverse performance possibilities are open. Note the composition about the distribution of voices. the tempos should be taken festively striding and adapted to the respective performance space.

Johannes Eccard (1531 - 1611)
Joh. Eccard was from 1567 - 1571 singer boy of the Weimar court chapel. From 1571 - 1573 he was a singer in the chapel of the Munich court, where he was a pupil of Orlando di Lasso. From 1580 he was vice-chapel master and from 1608 he was appointed court chapel master to Berlin, where he worked until his death.
Eccard wrote 250 sacred and secular vocal compositions for 4 - 8 voices. The double chorus here is also a vocal composition and the title is original 'Wir singen all mit Freudenschall'.

Michael Altenburg (1584 - 1640)
Altenburg was born on 27.05.1584 in Alach near Erfurt. He studied at the university there. In 1601 he became cantor at the St. Andrew's Church in that city. 1610 - 1621 he was pastor in Tröchtelborn and until 1637 in Sömmerda. Then he fled from the turmoil of the Thirty Years' War back to Erfurt where he worked as pastor at St. Andrew's Church until his death on February 12, 1640.
