This setting of the Te Deum, dedicated to the wife of Franz I of
Austria, is a rare example of a work from Haydn's late period that
doesn't feature soloists. The second of Haydn's Te Deum settings,
the work was performed in September 1800 on the name-day of the
wife of Haydn's patron, Prince Nicolaus Esterhazy II, and it
features the C major tonality and extensive use of trumpets and
drums that were often associated with festive ceremony. This
edition includes an orchestral reduction by Denis McCaldin, and
full details of editorial practice can be found in the full score.
Complete orchestral and vocal material is available on hire/rental,
and the vocal score is also available on sale.
Reduction for oboe and piano from the original for oboe and
orchestra. Orchestral material is on hire.
Haydn's Missa in Tempore Belli was composed in 1796 for SATB chorus
and soloists with orchestra. It is one of the finest of the six
Hermenegild masses that, together with The Creation and The
Seasons, represent the crowning glory of Haydn's final creative
period. Although the work was originally written for relatively
modest orchestral forces, the wind scoring was expanded when it was
performed to great acclaim in Vienna in late 1796. This critical
edition by Dr David Russell Hulme is the first to include both the
original and Viennese scorings, and the vocal score contains a
specially prepared piano reduction that provides a full and
practical representation of the instrumental textures and clearly
identifies the additional Viennese material. Complete orchestral
and vocal material is available on hire/rental, and the vocal score
is also available on sale.
Suitable for SATB chorus, STB soloists and piano or orchestra.
for soloists, SATB chorus, and orchestra or piano Written in 1798,
the Nelson Mass is one of Haydn's most popular works. Like The
Creation and the other Hermenegild masses, the work met a demand
for choral music that could be performed with orchestra. This
scholarly performing edition ends the confusion surrounding Haydn's
original scoring and the later version with additional wind
instruments. This definitive and versatile edition is compatible
with both scorings and also contains an orchestral reduction for
rehearsal purposes. Complete orchestral and vocal material is
available on hire/rental, and the vocal score is also available on
sale.
Next to Handel's Messiah, The Creation is perhaps the most
frequently performed oratorio. This edition is the first to present
the English text as Haydn intended, without the modifications of
twentieth-century editions, and is the version used by Haydn in his
many public renditions of the work using large forces. The keyboard
reduction in this edition is by the Leipzig Cantor A. E. Muller,
termed 'the best [and] most idiomatic' by Haydn himself. Full
details of sources and editorial method, as well as a bibliography,
can be found in the full score. Complete orchestral material and
vocal scores are available on hire/rental, and vocal scores are
available on sale.
Haydn's Missa brevis Sancti Joannis de Deo dates from c.1775 and
was written for the Order of the Brothers of Mercy based in
Eisenstadt. The mass is known for its distinctive 'Benedictus',
which features elaborate soprano writing and an extensive obbligato
organ part from which the work's alternative title, 'Little Organ
Mass', derives. This edition includes the elongated 'Gloria'
composed by Haydn's younger brother Michael, with Haydn's 31-bar
original included as an Appendix. The full score - also available
on sale - contains a critical commentary and full details of
sources. Complete orchestral material and vocal scores are
available on hire/rental.
