Hob XXI:3. Par HAYDN FRANZ JOSEF. Joseph Haydn's oratorio 'The Seasons' was composed directly after the first successful performances of 'The Creation'. 'The Seasons' has been greatly overshadowed by 'The Creation' for a long time and yet this work has far greater changes of style between popular Singspiel and great oratorio than 'The Creation'. 'The Seasons' continues to impress and remains part of the core repertoire to the present with its overwhelming richness of musical character and its immense formal variety.
This choral score supplements the existing performance material (BA 4647). It is based on the G. Henle Complete Edition of the 'Works of Joseph Haydn'./ Répertoire / Choeur Mixte SATB
