The oratorio was published in 2021 by the Dehm Verlag.[4] The premiere, planned to be in a football arena with audience participation, had to happen without audience due to the COVID-19 pandemic. A film of a shortened version was produced as a livestream, and first presented on 14 May 2021 as part of the Kirchentag.[3][1]
