I am thrilled to know that next year the Singapore Symphony Orchestra will be performing the Nelson Mass or Mass in D minor by Joseph Haydn (1732-1809)The mass is notable for the 'fireworks' demanded for the soprano soloist for the tragic Kyrie, and war-torn Gloria. The concert is scheduled on the 11 April 2009 Saturday and I hope I will be able to attend. Then on 24 April 2009, the SSO will be performing Beethoven's Piano Concerto No. 5 in E-flat major, Op 73 'Emperor' I hope I will be able to attend both concerts as these are my favourite works of the classical era.
