(Johann) Michael Haydn : Heiligste Nacht (Christmas carol)
In *Heiligste Nacht*, Michael Haydn combines the simple song form with strikingly serene harmonies, giving the Christmas text a contemplative rather than festive and grandiose character.
It is also noteworthy that, despite its limited range, the work’s melodic line creates a strong sense of tonal cohesion, making it particularly well-suited for group singing.
Text as with Christoph Bernhard Verspoell
