Hervey Alan (bass-baritone)
The London Mozart Players
(Leader, Max Salpeter )
Conductor, Harry Blech
Mozart died on December 5. 1791, while Haydn was composing his Ninety-Eighth Symphony. Haydn, profoundly moved, almost certainly modelled the Adagio on that of the ' Jupiter,' in conscious tribute to his friend. The ' Jupiter ' itself, however, is not entirely serious in mood, quoting as it does the jocular arietta K.S41, written three months earlier. Mozart's own farewell is spoken with heartfelt simplicity in ' lo ti lascio.' M.W.
