Franz Schubert

Psalm 23 op. 132, D 706

Franz Schubert’s setting of Psalm 23 ('Gott ist mein Hirt' / 'The Lord is my shepherd'), Op. 132, D 706, is one of the most deeply moving masterpieces of sacred choral literature. In this beautifully crafted edition from Oxford University Press, the work unfolds its intimate, radiant charm for three-part female choir (SSA) and piano accompaniment. Offprinted from the acclaimed anthology 'European Sacred Music', this sheet music features a sensitive English singing translation by John Rutter alongside the original German text. The gently flowing melodies and warm Schubertian harmonies create a truly uplifting experience for singers and listeners alike. An indispensable, timeless gem for church services, choral concerts, and discerning vocal ensembles.
