Format : Study Score / Miniature The Seven Last Words of Christ Hob. XX/1B-When Haydn stopped in Passau on his second journey to England he heard a vocal version of his own orchestral work The Seven Last Words. It had been made by the Kapellmeister at Passau cathedral Joseph Friebert and Haydnwas quite impressed except: 'I believe I could have done the voice parts better'. He acquired a copy and set about making his own vocal version taking over most of the text. Haydn particularly liked his own vocal work and itwas also enthusiastically received by his contemporaries. The study edition is based on the volume (HN 5822) published as part of the Complete Edition by the Joseph Haydn Institute in Cologne.
