Programme Note

The Creation is considered by many to be Haydn’s masterpiece composition. The oratorio depicts and celebrates the creation of the world as told in the book of Genesis.  The work features three soloists who sing the parts of the three angels Gabriel, Uriel and Raphael in parts I and II. In part III Adam and Eve appear in the garden of Eden. The work also includes several monumental choruses for the HCS singers.
