Die Ehre Gottes aus der Natur-Beethoven-string quartet by Ludwig van Beethoven String Quartet - Digital Sheet Music

By Ludwig van Beethoven

Die Ehres Gottes aus der Natur (The Glory of God in Nature) was composed by the Master, L. van Beethoven. It is the fourth of the Sechs Lieder (Six Songs), published in 1803, which foreshadowed the Art Songs of the Romantic Era. Originally for Voice and Piano, I have arranged it for Instrumental Quartet. My arrangement stays true to Beethoven's intent to capture the passion of the original text in the music. (The texts are all sacred poems by Gellert.) Without the presence of lyrics I needed to create musical interest and interpretation, so I realized inner voices and polyphony out of his original homophonic accompaniment. I added new shape to individual lines, altered phrasing, elaborated rhythms, and in true Beethoven style added more dynamic markings. The mood and meaning are now stunningly portrayed through music alone. Die Ehres Gottes is full of joyous majesty and wonder. It has been made into a popular anthem and hymn under the title The Heavens Are Telling. A fantastic addition to any Beethoven repertoire, or sacred service, or joyous occasion. 3 page score, 1 page parts2:00 minutes(I have arranged all six pieces which are available separately on this site, or they can be purchased as a set of 6 for half the price of buying all 6 individually; A451565 for Woodwind Quartet- all 6, or A451564 for String Quartet- all 6.)
