The Masses of Joseph Haydn
註釋"This book examines chronologically the history, sources, character, style, and performance choices within each of the Haydn Masses in careful detail. All this is set in a framework of Haydn's involvement with church music over his whole life span, and, in the context of his childhood as a singer, his career as Kapellmeister to the Princes Esterhazy, and his international prestige at the turn of the nineteenth century. Special focus is given to his performance practices in the churches in which he performed these Masses, his evolving style of orchestration, and his crucial, engaging preferences in rhythmic motion and tempi."--From publisher description.
