"On this CD, the Orpheus Chor München presents works of a composer whose life is closely bound with the Bavarian capital: from 1836, Franz Lachner led the royal court chapel, and thus, the Munich opera and court concerts. In 1883, he was made an honorary citizen of that city. Before the era of Richard Wagner, Lachner brought the court orchestra to a level that had never been reached before, and after Wagner left Munich, he returned again to lead the orchestra for over a year, with great success. (...) Between 1827 and 1829, Lachner began to compose sacred music, writing three masses for orchestra in this time. It can be assumed that Lachner hoped to find a position as court kapellmeister with these works. As of 1831, he began appearing as a conductor, and soon became a favorite of the Viennese public. In 1833, together with members of the Vienna court opera orchestra, Lachner founded the Vienna Künstlerverein, a predecessor of the Vienna Philharmonic." (uit de hoestekst)
