Description:
The "Requiem in B flat" is Johann Michael Haydn's second setting of the liturgical text of the requiem mass and also his last work, his "Opus ultimum" (another Requiem MH 599 turned out to be the work of P. Georg Pasterwiz). He began composing it in 1805 on the orders of Empress Marie Therese, but made only slow progress due to a serious illness and - like W. A. Mozart - was unable to complete his Requiem. Of the fragment, 43 pages of Haydn's fair copy have survived. In 1839, Father Gunther Kronecker, a Benedictine priest at the traditional Kremsmünster Abbey in Upper Austria, completed the torso "in the spirit and style" of Haydn. His addition - carried by lyrical, cantabile, in places folksong-like melodies - builds a stylistic bridge to the music of Schubert and the Viennese Biedermeier period.
