XIII. Haydn St. Cecilia Mass, Hob. 22 5 Marc Minkowski.



I think Haydn must have been familiar with today's Office reading from Saint Augustine, in which he answers the question 'What is singing with jubilation? It means' he says, 'to realise that words are not enough to express what we are singing in our hearts'.
