About

Die Schöpfung (The Creation) is an oratorio by Joseph Haydn completed in 1798, widely regarded as one of the peaks of Classical-era choral music. It unfolds in three parts, tracing the creation of the world after the Book of Genesis and the Psalms. Haydn balances grand choral writing with intimate arias, moving between dramatic outbursts and moments of quiet wonder.
