This CD presents church music works of J. M. Haydn, W. A. Mozart and L. Mozart, partly with world premiere recordings. The Court of the Prince-Archbishop of Salzburg can look back on a centuries-old musical tradition. It attained its zenith in the musical culture of Salzburg during the second half of the 18th century through two composers who are being honored for special anniversaries in 2006: Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (for his 250th birthday) and Johann Michael Haydn (the 200th annniversary of his death). Although the music of the younger Haydn brother was highly regarded by his contemporaries, his music was forgotten in the 19th century and still waits to be rediscovered. One of his more well-known works is the central piece on the present CD, the German Mass “Hier liegt vor deiner Majestät” MH 560 (Here before thy majesty), a work which is musically the epitome of south-German/Austrian Catholicism and which to this day is still a part of church music practice in this region. Wolfgang Amaedeus Mozart is represented on this recording with several smaller, lesser-known works, including the 23-measure motet “God is our Refuge” K. 20, his first setting of a sacred text, which he composed in London at the age of nine. In addition, the CD contains two movements from Leopold Mozart’s C Major Mass, which presents the tradition of the older style of church music. It long was regarded to have been composed by his son.

    Willi Schulze

    Mozarts Sancta Maria (KV 273) gehört zu denjenigen Gesängen der Liturgie, die sich nach der Zeit des Kirchenjahres oder dem jeweiligen Heiligenfest richten: Proprium de tempore et de Sanctis. Ordinarium und Proprium bildeten die feste Ordnung des Messgottesdienstes, die der Komponist kirchlicher Musik zu respektieren hatte. Während jedoch das Ordinarium in seinem Aufbau vom Kyrie bis zum Agnus Dei keine Veränderungen zuließ (dass Gloria und Credo zu bestimmten Zeiten wegfielen, war ebenfalls durch die liturgische Ordnung geregelt), war zu Mozarts Zeit im Proprium eine gewisse Freizügigkeit gestattet. So konnten freie Motetten oder Instrumentalstücke an Stelle der vorgeschriebenen liturgischen Gesänge verwendet werden. Mozarts Kirchensonaten, genauer als Epistelsonaten bezeichnet, gehen auf diese freie liturgische Ordnung zurück. Sie erklangen als Überleitungsmusik zwischen den Lesungen der Epistel und des Evangeliums. Ähnlich frei verfuhr man in der Wiedergabe des Offertoriums. Hier erfreuten sich Kompositionen über nichtliturgische Texte in lateinischer Sprache einer wachsenden Beliebtheit. Es ist heute nicht

[...] Mit feinster dynamischer Nuancierung und perfekter Intonation werden die Motetten dargeboten, etwa das bekannte ‚Tenebrae factae sunt'. Wiederum gelingt dem Wiener Kammerchor eine Referenzeinspielung. [...]
