This is clearly noticeable in the Cassatio 'La Pastorale', a pastoral piece for four strings and natural horn. It was performed at Schlagl Abbey at Christmas time in 1777 and must have created an exuberant, almost boisterous atmosphere.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTracks: Franz Josef Aumann: Missa in C Kyrie \/ Gloria \/ Laudamus \/ Gratias \/ Qui tollis \/ Quoniam \/ Cum Santo \/ Credo \/ Et incarnatus \/ Et resurrexit \/ Et in spiritum \/ Et exspecto \/ Sanctus \/ Pleni sunt coeli \/ Benedictus \/ Agnus Dei \/ Dona nobis pacem \/ Cassatio \"La Pastorella\" Presto non molto \/ Menuett \/ Adagio \/ Allegro moderato \/ Finale Presto\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ACCENT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44787536035996,"sku":"ACC24411","price":19.38,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/files\/2_2bbe397e-9c19-4d08-9eb0-9b2ba524bf31.webp?v=1740272008","url":"https:\/\/www.horizonsmusic.co.uk\/products\/st-florianer-sangerknaben-ars-antiqua-austria-gunar-letzbor-missa-solemnis-cd","provider":"Horizons Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
