The motet Lord, make me an instrument of your peace by the young composer Noah Roloff (*1999) was the catalyst for the founding of the chamber choir Voces Palatinae and also for this CD. The piece was written at the beginning of the war in Ukraine and picks up on the mood of this event and the associated longing for peace. What all the pieces on this program have in common is that they express a deep longing for peace, which is given particularly intense emphasis here with the wonderful choral sound of the young vocal ensemble.
