The Lord's Prayer, for chorus, harp, and organ, JW IV/29		The cantata Our Father (Czech: Otče náš or Otčenáš), originally called Moravian Our Father (Czech: Moravský Otče náš), is a setting of the Lord's Prayer by the Czech composer Leoš Janáček. Its first version (1901) was performed as an accompaniment to a series of tableaux vivants and was scored for mixed chorus, tenor, piano and harmonium; it has never been published. The revised version (1906), for mixed chorus, tenor, harp and organ, lasts about 15 minutes. Our Father met with a mixed reception at first, but it is now a much-recorded work and has been praised as an interesting and successful example of Janáček's ability to combine Christian texts with his own social commitment.
