This work by a next-to-unknown composer is the only surviving piece
from the once-large collection of both sacred and secular music which
was held by the Redemptorist Bennonites at their church in Warsaw. The
music is interspersed with liturgy in order to create an entire
Vespers service as it might have been heard at St. Benno's between
1790-1808. The copious notes give a fascinating history of the
Bennonites, their services to music and to the people during the
Prussian occupation of Poland and more.
