Stella coeli VB 10

Scoring: Soli ST, Coro SATB, 2 Fl, 2 Cor, 2 Vl, Va, Bc, Org solo

Its contrasts between cantabile melodiousness and powerfully dramatic passages inspired by the storm and stress movement, combined with highly artistic contrapuntal writing and a brilliant organ solo, make this work a jewel in a wider context than Kraus’s church music. It is here published for the first time in a scholarly edition.
