The rediscovery of the monumental church opera "König Salomo" (King Salomon) composed by Ludwig Meinardus, a pupil of Mendelssohn Bartholdy, by the North German church musican and music publisher Norbert Klose had made it possible to perform this work after 130 years prolonged disappearance. In October of 2010 two concerts took place in the German cities Bad Oldesloe and Hohenwestedt with great public interest. The present recording now is the result of these performances.

Also published by euthentic is another oratorio work by Ludwig Meinardus: "King Solomon".
