The King's Consort Robert King - M. Haydn: Requiem in C Minor & Chiemsee-Messe [CD]

Please Note Not All Our New Items Are Shrink Wrapped.All items shipped within 3 working days of payment.The Kingu2019s Consortu2019s latest foray into the studio brings us a thrilling new recording of Michael Haydnu2019s Requiem, and reveals the little-known u2018St Ursulau2019 Mass to be a truly exceptional work.rThe Requiem was composed in response to tragedy, the death of Haydnu2019s patronu2014the Prince-Archbishop of Salzburgu2014providing the official cloak for an outpouring of grief as much inspired by the death of the composeru2019s infant daughter. In itself the work is a memorable and confident example of the genre, but its deserved fame has been somewhat eclipsed by the many striking similarities between the Haydn and Mozart Requiems; when Wolfgang Amadeus composed what was to be his lastu2014and most famousu2014work a full twenty years after Haydnu2019s memorial to the archbishop had been first performed, he doubtless intended it as the highest of praise to his friend that he borrowed melodies, rhythms, scoring, structure u2026 Such points of musicological interest must no longer be allowed to obscure the worth of the Haydnu2019s original magnum opus.rSome three dozen Mass-settings by Michael Haydn survive. The Missa in honorem Sanctae Ursula (also known as the u2018Chiemsee-Messeu2019) currently rests in relative obscurity, being performed rarely and hardly touched in the recording studio. And yet Robert King, his choir, soloists and orchestra here demonstrate this to be a work of great beauty and intense power, with a place both in the liturgy and as a showcase for excellent performances.
