Weib, Was Weinest Du? — Woman, why weepest thou?

Heinrich Schütz is one of the greats, and revered scholar Peter Aston provides the information to do his music right. Providing the text in both the original German and English, Dr. Aston also includes in-depth historical notes from the original source. The music is exquisite and worthy of study and performance in high school and college, but still germane to the church choir as well.
