Book-ending Haydn's celebrated string quartets and symphonies were masses-the first and last pieces penned by the deeply devout composer. These magnificent sacred works at once honored Viennese church traditions and displayed Haydn's unmistakable musical language. The Trinity Choir, REBEL Baroque Orchestra and conductors J. Owen Burdick and Jane Glover bring out their myriad moods, emotions and melodies as you hear Stabat Mater; Missa Sancti Nicolai, "Nikolaimesse"; Missa in Angustiis, "Nelsonmesse"; Missa Cellensis, "Mariazellermesse,"; Missa in Tempore Belli, "Paukenmesse"; Missa Brevis, "Harmoniemesse", and more!
