Apart from many other treasures by Giacomo Meyerbeer, the Choral Treasury series also contains his compositional gem An Mozart. The quartet for four male a cappella voices (TTBB) is based on a text by Ludwig Rellstab. Even in this brief musical bow to Mozart, Meyerbeer's affinity for the opera cannot be denied: He uses a wide harmonic, technical and dynamic range of expression and makes impressive use of the full ambitus of the male choir. A highly rewarding rarity for ambitious men's choirs (or optionally for four solo voices) in which all high romantic stops are pulled out to pay due tribute to Mozart as 'Meister ..., der im reinen Lichte schwebt' [maestro who hovers in pure light].
