Benedictus from Maydn's Miss Sancti Nicolai prepared by H.C.Robbins Landon from previously unavailable sources, this is the standard edition of the most joyous of all Haydn’s masses. (He wrote it as a thank-you to Prince Esterházy for taking the hint from the Farewell Symphony and giving all his musicians a much-needed holiday.) Full of vitality and abounding in tunes, it gives a wonderful lift to any concert programme.
