Creation (Schöpfung) : Note Perfect, Learn the Notes for Choral Music the Easy Way

The Creation (Die Schöpfung) is set for 3 Soloists and SATB Choir. (NB there is an Alto soloist scored for just 4 bars in the final movement).

The Creation was composed and originally published to be sung in English or German. The way the notes are sung can vary considerably from one language to the other, yet with the same orchestral accompaniment. It is for this reason that we supply separate recordings recordings to suit English and German libretto.

For our downloads, you do not have to choose which language you want, you will have access to both.

We supply everything for choir, and the soprano, tenor and bass soloists.

Listen to samples selected from Haydn The Creation Rehearsal Aids.
