Bruckner's motets on YouTube[edit]

I have added to the selected discography of 8 motets (In jener letzten der Nächte [choir setting], Tantum ergo WAB 42 [1888 version], Ave Maria WAB 6, Afferentur regi, Inveni David, Locus iste, Tota pulchra es, and Ecce sacerdos magnus) the CD/DVD of the Benefizkonzert Karmeliternkirche Linz of 2006 issued by the Cantores Carmeli, because the conductor Michael Stenov has also put these motets on YouTube, with the sung text on the video.

I have also added performances on YouTube to the selected discography of the following motets: Pange lingua (first version) WAB 31, Asperges me WAB 3.2, Herz Jesu-Lied WAB 144, Ave Maria WAB 5 & WAB 7, Libera me WAB 22, Pange lingua WAB 33, Iam lucis orto sidere (3rd setting), Christus factus est WAB 11, Os justi, Virga Jesse, Salvum fac populum tuum, the five Tantum ergo WAB 41 & WAB 42 (1888 version), and Vexilla regis WAB 51.

The readers, who do not have a CD with the concerned motets, can so enjoy them. --Réginald alias Meneerke bloem (To reply) 11:43, 14 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

A complete set of Bruckner's motets[edit]

There is no commercial complete set of Bruckner's motets available.

Hans Roelofs has made a compilation of the "best of" the recordings of Bruckner’s Smaller Sacred Music (Motets, Bruckner's early Masses, and Two Aequali) in the chronological order of the Kleine Kirchenmusikwerke (MWV B 21-STP, ed. Bauernfeind-Nowak), in total three CDs (44 works).[1] Of a few works (Pange lingua, WAB 31 [1st version], Asperges me, WAB 4 and 3.2, Kronstorfer Messe, and Requiem in D minor [Fragment], WAB 141), for which there were no commercial recordings available, Roelofs took live-recordings. Only of two fragmental works (WAB 139 & 140) there were no recordings at all available. It is so possible to hear (almost) all these works in the "right" order. Interested people can obtain a copy of the CD set at the Bruckner Society of America.[2] A recording of the missing Kyrie in E-flat major (Fragment), WAB 139, using notation software can be heard on John Berky's website.[3]

PS: In the meantime, a CD with the Pange lingua, WAB 31 (1st version) and the Asperges me, WAB 4 has been issued.[4] --Réginald alias Meneerke bloem (To reply) 10:00, 23 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
