Tonalité : D-Moll - Horn, Paul (Arr.) -. Par NAUMANN JOHANN GOTTLIEB. Johann Gottlieb Naumann, who today is becoming increasingly well known, achieved recognition during his lifetime as a composer of operas, among them the first Swedish “national opera, ” Gustaf Wasa. In addition he wrote a large number of sacred compositions for the Court of Dresden, where he was employed for many years, including the present Missa in D minor, which was still performed well into the 20th century. This work, probably composed for Christmas in 1794, displays a decidedly pastoral character in the Gloria and Agnus Dei and moreover, is distinguished by charming solo woodwind parts. / Messe / Répertoire / Solistes SATB, Choeur SATB, 2 Flûtes Traversières,
