Arnold Schoenberg: Friede auf Erden, Op. 13 for Mixed Choir a cappella

“Friede auf Erden” Op. 13 (“Peace on Earth”) is one of Arnold Schoenberg’s major choral works from his late tonal period. Set to a poem by Conrad Ferdinand Meyer, the composition is written for eight-part mixed choir. It combines late-Romantic harmony, rich chromaticism, and demanding contrapuntal writing.

The work was originally intended to be performed a cappella. Schoenberg later prepared a version with a small orchestra, primarily intended to provide intonational support for the choir. Schott’s SKR 19008 edition contains the choral score, including a piano reduction intended for rehearsal purposes only.

“Friede auf Erden” is a demanding repertoire choice, particularly in terms of intonation, harmonic precision, and the coordination of its eight vocal parts. The work lasts approximately 8 minutes.
