Product Description

Venanzio Rauzzini (1746-1810) was an Italian-born castrato singer, teacher, and composer; he sang the premier performance of Mozart's Exultate Jubilate. He went to England in 1774 and remained there for the rest of his life. When his dog, Turk, died, Rauzzini erected a memorial to him in his garden at Bath, which Haydn saw on a visit to Rauzzini in August of 1794. Haydn set part of the memorial inscription as a four-part canon. This edition gives both Haydn's canon, which can be sung as a four-part round, and a realization for string quartet (set of parts).
