Joseph Haydn's sublime sacred music is showcased in this exquisite album, 'Haydn: Theresienmesse & Kleine Orgelmesse'. Released on 1 February 1996 by Chandos, this classical music masterpiece features two of Haydn's most revered works: the 'Theresienmesse' and the 'Kleine Orgelmesse'. The 'Theresienmesse', composed in 1799, is a symphonically conceived Mass in B-flat major, while the 'Kleine Orgelmesse', written in 1774, is an intimately scaled work that highlights Haydn's mastery of chamber music.
This 59-minute album is a testament to Haydn's enduring legacy as one of the greatest composers of all time. Performed by renowned musicians, including Collegium Musicum 90 and conducted by Richard Hickox, the album features a range of talented vocalists, including Janice Watson, Pamela Helen Stephen, Mark Padmore, and Stephen Varcoe. The 'Theresienmesse' is presented in its entirety, with tracks including 'Kyrie', 'Gloria', 'Credo', 'Sanctus', 'Benedictus', and 'Agnus Dei', while the 'Kleine Orgelmesse' is similarly presented, offering a unique contrast to the grandeur of the 'Theresienmesse'.
With its perfect blend of classical and chamber music, this album is a must-listen for fans of Haydn and classical music enthusiasts alike. The 'Theresienmesse' and 'Kleine Orgelmesse' are a showcase of Haydn's innovative and expressive compositional style, and this album is a wonderful tribute to his artistry.
