Collegium Laureatum will perform four pieces of music from four different composers, who lived between 1732 and 1837. Salieri and Mozart jointly fill the programme before the interval with the overture from the opera La Grotta di Trofonio, a successful opera from 1785 and the Mass in C by Mozart, also called Credo Mass because of the word credo recurring in this movement over 50 times! After the interval we will hear a piece composed by one of Mozart’s pupils, Johann Nepomuk Hummel. He composed the Te Deum within a week after the signing of the Peace of Pressburg in 1805. The evening is closed by Haydn, a friend of Mozart. Haydn composed the Missa Cellensis for Mariazell, a pilgrimage church in Styria, using intricate polyphony, especially in the last movement Dona nobis pacem.
