Chiemsee-Messe. Par HAYDN JOHANN MICHAEL. Among Haydn’s over thirty settings of the Latin Ordinary, the Missa in honorem Sanctae Ursula occupies an outstanding position, which, according to the autograph, was completed on 5 August 1793. This Mass has been referred to as the most “Mozartian” of all his masses. With its song-like melodic character, the unity of the motivic material and the harmonius balance between festive and reflective sections this Mass is one of Haydn’s most successful and inspired works. This work, which in addition to the usual Salzburg “church trio” includes two trumpets and timpani, belongs to the category of “Missa solemnis. ” The popular nickname Chiemsee-Messe is bound up with the history ofthe origins of the work. Haydn wrote the Mass for the musically gifted nun, Sebastiana Oswald, who belonged to the Benedictine cloister of Frauenchiemsee. This work soon found widespread acceptance beyond the originally intended sphere of its origins, as is indicated by the numerous copies found in Austrian convents. / Messe / Répertoire / Solistes SATB, Choeur SATB, 2 Clarinettes, Timbale

Offertorium Zum Ostersonntag. Par EBERLIN JOHANN ERNST. Eberlin’s programmatic setting of the offertory “Terra tremuit” was written for the festive liturgy of Easter Sunday at Salzburg Cathedral, which in the 17th and 18th centuries was a center of the cultivation of the polyphonic offertory. Verses 9 and 10 of Psalm 76 [Vulgata 75], with their vivid description of the earth trembling and falling silent are Eberlin’s basis for the offertory. Eberlin depicts the earthquake by means of a written-out tremolo of the strings, and by staccato singing of the syllables of the word “tremuit”. The Resurrection is depicted musically by ascending figures at the words “dum resurgere”. An Alleluia concludes the work./ Répertoire / Solistes SATB, Choeur SATB, 2 Clarinettes, Timbale

Spaur-Messe. Par MOZART WOLFGANG AMADEUS. The relatively unspectacular nature of the 'Spaur Mass' may be one of the reasons for the fact that writers on music generally refer to it only as a peripheral work, a little sister of Mozart's 'important' church works. With regard to scoring, the 'Spaur Mass' belongs to the category of the 'missa solemnis', but its brevity and its stylistic character belong far more to the 'missa brevis'. / Messe / Répertoire / Solistes SATB, Choeur SATB, 2 Clarinettes, Timbale

Spatzenmesse. Par MOZART WOLFGANG AMADEUS. An unusual feature of this Mass is its cyclic form, a compositional principle which Mozart first introduced in his masses in this 'Mass in C': in the Agnus Dei ('Dona nobis pacem') he reverted to the music of the Kyrie, thus giving the Mass overall musical unity. Another unusual feature of this work is its popular character. This is evident both in its catchy themes and in its relatively straigthforward musical structure. / Messe / Répertoire / Solistes SATB, Choeur SATB, 2 Clarinettes, Timbale
