Question 9
Jo and music
I tell you, Jo composed so much, others, living 10 lives, wouldn’t have been able to compose. He wrote 107 symphonies, more often than not, people would give them funny names, like the clock, symphony with a drumbeat or the farewell, just to name a few…..
24 Operas, which fell into obscurity… poor Jo
14 Masses, like the Theresienmesse, the Schöpfungsmesse, the Harmoniemesse and 11 more.
3 Spiritual Oratories like “The Creation“, “The Seven Last Words of Christ“, 1 worldly oratory, “The Seasons“, 36 solo concerts, 68 string quartets like “The Royal Quartet“, “The Bird Quartet“, “The Frog Quartet“ and many more… whew…
