In 1818 Johann Georg Christian Apel was appointed the first university music director of the Christian-Albrechts-University Kiel. As a jubilee edition for the 200th anniversary of Apel's appointment, a song volume has already been published here. The present collection of his male choirs should direct a further focus on Apel's rich compositional work.
