I Know that My Redeemer Liveth Op. 107a for SATB Choir and Organ (or Piano): Choral Works (inc. Oratorios)

This single-page setting brings liturgical weight to a familiar text without overwhelming your singers or rehearsal calendar. Peeters achieves genuine spiritual depth through straightforward harmonic writing and transparent four-part voicing, making it an ideal choice for services, concert programs, or liturgical seasons where you need music that lands with conviction.

The setting unfolds with quiet assurance, its harmonic language rooted in late-Romantic tradition yet direct in its communication. There's dignity here without strain, and spiritual conviction that emerges from honest craftsmanship rather than dramatic gesture.

Choirs of mixed voices at intermediate to advanced levels will find this accessible but rewarding. Directors programming sacred repertoire for services, concert programs, or competitions will value its compact length and clear liturgical purpose.

• Let the organ (or piano) anchor harmonic resonance rather than simply doubling the voices; the accompaniment carries structural weight and shouldn't sit back.
• Shape the text naturally, respecting the grammatical phrases of the words rather than bowing to vocal cadences that feel arbitrary.
• Attend to balance between the outer voices and inner parts, especially when sopranos and tenors sit high; inner voices can vanish quickly if they're not supported by engaged singing.

This works beautifully as a centerpiece for an all-sacred concert program or nested within a longer service. Its modest length makes it an excellent coupling with larger choral works or instrumental pieces, and it fits naturally into Easter and Easter season liturgies.

• Part independence in four-part harmony without excessive doubling
• Sustaining tone through longer phrases while maintaining clarity
• Ensemble balance between four distinct voices
• Textual interpretation within a liturgical context
