Górecki’s simple, but deeply affecting Marian Songs wrap you in a “down comforter” of a cappella calm and peace. Then, get intimate with Haydn. The Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra joins the Master Chorale in our tribute to the most lyrical and personal — but by no means less dramatic — of his late masses. Reflecting Haydn's wish in a letter to bring “a few moments of rest and refreshment” to a weary listenener, the Maria Theresa Mass accomplishes exactly that.
