As part of the Easter at King's Festival, Stephen Cleobury conducts this concert of seasonal music, live from the chapel of King's College, Cambridge. Haydn's dramatic Symphony 49 is from his Sturm und Drang period. There's a rare performance of Schiller's funeral song, a lamentation on the inevitability of death, set by Brahms; and the concert ends with Rossini's Stabat Mater, a late work written after he'd retired from the operatic stage.
