Haydn’s Mass in B flat Mass of 1799 was called the ‘Theresienmesse’ after the Empress Maria Theresa (pictured), an accomplished singer who is thought to have sung the soprano part in a private performance of the Mass in Vienna.
Dvorak's sparkling Te Deum was composed in 1892 for a concert celebrating the 400th anniversary of Christopher Columbus landing in America.
