Choral collection Mozart / Haydn VII (Canon collection)
Volume VII of the Mozart · Haydn series of choral books is a collection from a genre to which all of the great composers have devoted themselves to a greater or lesser degree: It contains the complete vocal canons of W. A. Mozart and Joseph Haydn, as well as a selection from the prodigious output of canons by Johann Michael Haydn. Created primarily for music making among friends, these canons reveal the contrapuntal mastery of their creators, but also the capricious, witty and occasionally suggestive texts.
