With music by Joseph Haydn and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, this festive concert in St. Michael's Basilica opens up a wide-ranging sound space between devotion and jubilation. Haydn's Salve Regina and the radiant C major Concerto for organ and orchestra tell of heartfelt piety and baroque luminosity, while Mozart's "Spatzenmesse" with its typical verve, clarity and bright choral movements celebrates the light of faith.
In the unique acoustics of the basilica, these works become a musical breathing space in which the solemn architecture and the characteristic original sound of the Vienna Academy Orchestra mutually reinforce each other. An excellent quartet of soloists and the Vienna Boys'Choir lend the liturgical texts transparency, brilliance and a floating lightness.
The result is an evening in which baroque and classical sacred music can be experienced in all its glory - a colorful "Gloria in Musica" that makes the heart and the room vibrate in equal measure.
