Inveni David (I have found David), WAB 19, is a sacred motet composed by Anton Bruckner in 1868.
Bruckner composed the motet on 21 April 1868 at the end of his stay in Linz. He wrote it for the 24th anniversary of the Liedertafel Frohsinn. The first performance occurred on 10 May 1868 as offertory of a mass of Antonio Lotti. [1] [2]
The manuscript is archived at the Linzer Singakademie (Frohsinn-archive). [3] The motet was first published in band III/2, pp. 239–244 of the Göllerich/Auer biography. [1] It is put in Band XXI/23 of the Gesamtausgabe. [4]
The text is taken from Psalm 89 (Psalms89:20-21).
Inveni David servum meum, | I have found David, my servant; |
The work is a setting of 46 bars in F minor for TTBB choir and 4 trombones. [1]
The last 16 bars consist of an Alleluja , for which Bruckner drew his inspiration from the Hallelujah of Händel's Messiah , on which he often improvised on the organ. [1]
