Franz Hauk

Description:

Performance of Meir's "Missa solemnissa," neglected for nearly 200 years. Franz Hauck and the Concerto de Bassus actively introduce the music of Johann Simon Meier. Like the "Gloria Mass" (8.574203) previously released on NAXOS, this work is rooted in the style of the "Missa concertata" (each piece played independently of the others) popular in 17th century Italy, in which the singers and orchestra engage in a skillful interplay, The lyrical beauty of Maier's melodies, for which he wrote more than 70 operas, is still present in these religious works.
