This tour-de-force setting of Praise to the Lord, the Almighty (LOBE DEN HERREN) can be shortened to a piece 2-3 minutes in length by following the composer's suggestions. Changing meters and animated rhythms in the opening section lead to a middle section marked "Lilting." The rhythmic emphasis returns in the final section in alternating 6/8 - 3/4 meter and an exciting finish. Suitable for recital, festival, or an extended postlude.
