Tyrolean Christmas Concert


Karl Pembaur: Christmas Mass, op. 18 (1915) & Christmas pieces from early 20th century Tyrolean tradition


Karl Pembaur's father Josef was a music director in Innsbruck and shaped the musical life of the city for decades. Karl was born in 1876 and, like his older brother Josef Jr., pursued a career in music. He studied at the Royal Academy of Music in Munich. After completing his education, he worked in Dresden as a choir director and répétiteur at the court opera and as an organist at the Catholic court church. In 1908, he was appointed music director, and from 1913 he directed the Dresden court church music. Pembaur created primarily church musical works that gained wide distribution but also songs and marches. His sonorous, both functional and original Christmas Mass from 1915 is a so-called plenary mass – meaning that he not only set to music the parts of the ordinary but also the propers of the "Missa in die" (Mass for the Day), the third mass for the Christmas festival: The introitus "Puer natus est," the gradual "Viderunt omnes fines terrae," the offertory "Tui sunt coeli," and the communio, again with the text "Viderunt omnes fines terrae." Pembaur's mass combines the church music tradition with a decidedly contemporary late Romantic sound language; the influence of his father's masses is noticeable as well as an orientation towards the model of Munich's great master of sacred music, Josef Gabriel Rheinberger. The mass is complemented by Christmas pieces from early 20th century Tyrolean tradition.
