Sony

An album entitled Paschale Mysterium was issued as a vinyl record in 1976; it was re-released by Sony Records in 1998. The music was sung by the German choir Capella Antiqua München directed by its regular conductor Konrad Ruhland.

Several samples of the album were used without permission for the album MCMXC a.D. by Enigma, for example the antiphon "Procedamus in pace!". This antiphon was used in the track "Sadeness (Part I)", which appeared as a single in late 1990, shortly before the album was released. After a lawsuit in 1994, compensation was paid.
