Description
Joseph Haydn: Missa in Angustiis – Stereo LP Edition
UPC: LPX 1266
Overview
Joseph Haydn’s stirring “Missa in Angustiis” in D minor (Nelson‑Messe) delivers a profound fusion of symphonic grandeur and sacred devotion. Recorded in Budapest under the baton of János Ferencsik, this high‑fidelity vinyl captures Maria Stader’s luminous soprano, Claudia Hellmann’s warm alto, Ernst Haefliger’s expressive tenor and Victor von Halem’s resonant bass, supported by the Állami Hangversenyzenekar and chorus. Rich liner notes (in Hungarian and English) by Somfai László explore the work’s genesis amid the “anxieties” of 1798 and its triumphant fanfares honoring Nelson’s victory.
