For the funeral of Leipzig Bürgermeister Theodor Möstel in 1626, it is shown that the text which Schein set to music for the occasion was Möstel’s ‘Symbolum’, his personal ‘Spruch’; the same text was preached upon in Polycarp Leiser’s funeral sermon. The author argues that this model – the connection between personal piety in the ‘Symbolum’, the selection of such a text in anticipation of the funeral, and its setting to music for the occasion – can be applied to a number of the compositions in Israelsbrünnlein. Printed funeral sermons and Schein’s own individually published occasional compositions are examined to show how their texts were used, understood and set to music in Lutheran confessional culture. date: 2018 id_scheme: DOI id_number: 10.11588/heidok.00025400 ppn_swb: 1656172666 own_urn: urn:nbn:de:bsz:16-heidok-254004 date_accepted: 2018-01-25 advisor: HASH(0x558eaa7d0b00) language: eng bibsort: TARLINGPAUKRAFFTSPRU2018 full_text_status: public citation: Tarling, Paul (2018) “KrafftSprüchlin Altes und Newen Testaments”: Johann Hermann Schein’s Israelsbrünnlein (1623).
