Description:
Joseph Haydn’s festive “Missa in honorem Beatissimae Virginis Mariae” (widely known as the “Great Organ Solo Mass” in E-flat major, Hob. XXII:4) is one of the most magnificent sacred masterpieces of the Viennese Classical era. The work captivates through its splendid choral writing, expressive solo parts for soprano, alto, tenor, and bass, and profound musical depth. This premier Bärenreiter Urtext vocal score provides choirs, soloists, and accompanists with a reliable, scholarly text grounded in the latest research. The expertly arranged and idiomatic piano reduction ensures optimal rehearsal preparation, bringing the radiant elegance of Haydn's sacred composition to life. An indispensable edition for ambitious performances and a glorious addition to any concert or liturgical repertoire.
