Sacred concerto[1] (German: geistliches Konzert,[2] plural geistliche Konzerte, lit.'spiritual concerto (or: concert)') is a 17th-century genre of sacred music, characterized as settings of religious texts requiring both vocal soloists and obbligato instrumental forces for performance.[3][4] Starting from Italian models, the genre flourished primarily in Germany.[3][4] It is a broad term for various genres of chamber concerto for a small number of voices and instruments popular in Germany during the 17th century and prefiguring the late baroque church cantata and solo sacred cantata forms.[5]
