by chance, do you know who the bass trombonist is? This is one of the most difficult excerpts asked in an orchestral audition and the bass trombonist plays it very well in this live performance. Great blend with the bassoon and 'cello as well.
@MrTenorstar und die Baßposaune? war es zu stark mit Cello und Fagott? Ich persönlich dachte, daß es eine schöne Ergänzung, vor allem mit dem Chor Sound ist (obwohl die Aussprache des Chores Arbeit benötigt, haha)
English translation: And the bass trombone? Was it too strong with cello and bassoon? I personally thought that it was a nice complement, especially with the choir's sound (though the pronunciation of the chorus needs work, haha)

i sang this as a first soprano for charter oak music festival in english a year ago.. it was amazing and incredibly fun to sing. i recommend this piece to any group - it blows the audience away and the piano piece (if without the orchestra) is absolutely intense.
same here... but i only have 3 weeks to learn it so... i'll stick to the english... was the creation written in german... i thought it was written in english like handel's messiah.
It has an interesting history. The original libretto was in English, but Haydn used a German translation to score the work. Just like the Oxford and other modern editions, the first publishing had both the German text Haydn used an a metrical English translation. However, the translator of the German didn't speak English very well, and that's why the translation has a lot of awkward moments.
They are not able to pronounce the German words correctly.

Great video. The sopranos sound really rich and full, and not screechy like many choirs sound

As my old choirmaster liked to say, Haydn just sings itself. Wonderfully fun!
