'I like writing singable and text-oriented works. As one critic once wrote, the pieces often are placed between archaic church mode and modern music and oriented by the rhythm of language. I like using Gregorian … quotes. Choirs at a good level which set store by a sense of tone and expression find my settings easy to master.' (Peter Paul Förster) All these characteristics described by Peter Paul Förster himself of his own compositional style are true for his choral work Herr, mach mich zum Werkzeug deines Friedens as if tailor-made. At the same time, his sacred choral piece for four-part women's a cappella choir (SSAA) is imbued with warmth and sincerity which lends special weight to the solemn request for peace and reconciliation. A wonderful gem of church music which actually makes the listener's heart skip a beat!
