Fiori Musicali

Haydn Theresienmesse

Judit Felszeghy soprano, Edmund Hastings tenor, Andrew Tipple bass, leader Kerstin Linder-Dewan

Haydn Theresienmesse
To wrap up Fiori Musicali's 'Hortus Musicus' (the musical garden) 2025 summer concert series, the full quota of Fiori musicians will be at Fotheringhay (Mary Queen of Scots country). But it isn’t the Tudor Queen we celebrate. Instead we honour an Empress – Maria Theresa – whose baroque gardens at Schönbrunn (the main summer residence of the Hapsburg rulers) were an impressive symbol of imperial power. So for our grand finale we perform Haydn’s Theresienmesse – a splendidly regal tribute to the ‘musical garden’ replete with vocal soloists, choir and chamber orchestra. (With an aside to Mozart in arias from his youthful opera La finta giardiniera).

Mozart - Arias from La finta giardiniera
Haydn - Theresienmesse


Judit Felszeghy - soprano
