Composers:- Mozart, Wolfgang Amadeus
- Barnes, Clifford P.
Duration: 3
Description:
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart composed the motet Exultate, jubilate in Milan, Italy, in his 17th year (1773). The review of the first performance lamented it as not being sacred music, and compared it to one of his symphonies. In the use of melodies in the closing section, Mozart, knowingly and indifferently, used four bars of Haydn’s Kaiser Hymn (occurring at m. 135). The motet was originally written for soprano voice and small orchestra, and is still in the repertoire of many great singers. The Alleluia, which is the third movement of the motet, is one of vivacity and jubilation, equivalent to a final symphonic movement.
