Die 'Missa juvenalis' entstand als Auftragskompostion der Chore an St. Georg in Bensheim. Sie ist eine moderne Orchestermesse fur zweistimmigen Jugendchor und vierstimmigen Erwachsenenchor, Orchester, Sopransolo und zwei Perkussionisten. Die ca. 30minutige Messe vereint den klassischen, lateinischen Messtext mit deutschen Erganzungen von Dag Hammarskjold und Meister Eckhart. In 'Kyrie' und 'Agnus Dei eingeschoben, geben Sie dem zeitlosen Messtext eine beruckende Aktualitat. Die Messe bewegt sich stilistisch zwischen klassischen Modellen, Musical und Jazz. Entsprechend uppig ist die notwendige Ausstattung an Schlagwerk, das zu den Streichern und Holzblasern hinzutritt.

Michael Haydn composed three of his masses in honor of the holy archangels - St Michael, St Gabriel, and the Raphaelismesse in honor of St Raphael now published. By avoiding the use of vocal soloists, it is one of the genre of Missa in pieno. Four trumpets and two ad lib oboe parts added later by the composer give the work a festive sound in the baroque tradition. At the same time, elements of the 'sensitive style' feature too. The Gloria and Credo exist in two settings, a short version with polytextual passages and a longer version arranged by Haydn himself. The Carus edition, based on authentic performance material in St. Peter's Monastery in Salzburg, contains both versions, with the longer version published here for the first time. Score and part available separately - see item CA.5408700.

He who seeks a moving and lyrical work with rewarding roles for the choir could do no better than to choose Rheinberger's Stern von Bethlehem. In nine scenes (Expectation, The shepherds, The appearance of the angels, The Star, etc.) the Christmas story is lyrically portrayed. Songlike and pastoral choruses, a heartfelt soprano part and finally, the exotic, charming procession of the Wisemen through the desert have insured this work an increasing popularity. It was written in 1890 to a libretto by Rheinberger's wife Fanny. On account of their similar scoring, this work can be easily combined for a performance with Mendelssohn's Vom Himmel hoch or Die Geburt Christi. Score and part available separately - see item CA.5016400.
