This recording features powerful versions of these two major
choral works. The first, the Mass in G, although written when Schubert was only 18
gives the clearest foretaste of his development as a composer. Haydn’s huge Mass
in D minor, known as the "Nelson" compliments the Schubert. Whilst
the Schubert incorporates his easily identifiable lyrical methods, the Haydn is much
darker in style often punctuated with stark uncompromising energy. The performances were
recorded in St. Paul’s Cathedral with it’s tremendous atmosphere and with the
scarcity of available versions, these must now be the ones to acquire.
