PROGRAM
Joseph Haydn Missa in Angustiis (“Nelson” Mass)
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Vesperae solennes de confessore
Throughout the 17th and 18th centuries Catholic composers devoted their energies to the provision of music for the Mass and for the office of Vespers. This program brings together two of the greatest sacred works of the era, one for each of these services. Both works are established favourites, and both feature the solo soprano voice.
