Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Ave Verum Corpus (K. 618), at Dom zu Salzburg, Austria

Описание: [Forest Green Street Music] Ave Verum Corpus (Hail, true body), (K. 618), is a motet in D major composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in 1791. It is a setting of the Latin hymn Ave verum corpus. Mozart wrote it for Anton Stoll, a friend who was the church musician of St. Stephan in Baden bei Wien (Vienna). The motet was composed for the feast of Corpus Christi; the autograph is dated 17 June 1791. It was scored for SATB choir, string instruments and organ. This performance of Ave Verum Corpus was filmed in Dom zu Salzburg.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's parents, Leopold und Anna Maria, were married in Dom zu Salzburg (Salzburg Cathedral) on 21 November 1747. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was christened at the Cathedral on 28 January 1756. He was appointed as organist in 1779, and composed almost all of his sacred music - masses, propers, offices, litanies, chorales and church sonatas - for the Cathedral. Salzburg Cathedral is probably the city's most important sacred building and also its spiritual focal point. Its magnificent façade and vast dome make it the most impressive architectural monument in the early Baroque style north of the Alps.
