General Information
Title: Es spricht der Unweisen Mund wohl, SWV 110
Composer: Heinrich Schütz

Number of voices: 4vv Voicing: SATB
Genre: Sacred, Chorale
Language: German
Instruments: A cappella
First published: 1628

Description: Psalm 14 from the Becker Psalter. Although the original (Renaissance) melody by Martin Luther is in Lydian mode, Schütz' interpretation is more modern (Baroque) and the lowest point is therefore not an "e♭" but an "e". Unfortunately Blankenburg did not consider this in his edition when combining the Cantus part (Soprano) and the Altus part in one staff.
