The Missa in honorem Beatissimae Virginis was written during Haydn’s time at the Esterhaz castle. It is very personal in tone, more than any other of his masses. The form as the booklet says ‘is more subtle and complex; the meaning behind the music and text is expressed with intensity and a new profundity’. The organ obbligato parts match perfectly the dark sound of the English horns. Mozart’s Te Deum was written in 1769, when Mozart was only thirteen years old. Nevertheless this work shows a great inventiveness in rhythm and in harmony. | Error processing SSI file |
