Anton Bruckner’s motet Os justi was composed in a special context: Bruckner composed it for Ignaz Traumihler, the choral director of the Upper Austrian Abbey St. Florian and an enthusiastic devotee of Cecilianism. That movement in church music of the 19th century had taken up the cause of the classical ideal of a Palestrina-orientated a cappella style. Bruckner’s composition appears correspondingly antique-like in a church mode setting and with a fugue in a “classical vocal polyphonic style” in the middle part. Bruckner knew best how to combine the church music traditions with his own tonal language and hence to create that exceptional work of Romantic choral literature.
