Liedsatz, Trio und Fuge in C "Égaux - der Gleichsinn"

... or when neo-baroque meets Viennese classical music .....

A beautiful song by Joseph Haydn in my music book chewed on during my holiday in Provence.

Égaux - which means like-mindedness. In the song movement composed by Haydn, which I play in the middle of the fugue (as a musical quotation), one senses the streamlining of music in Viennese Classicism.

I wrap the simple melody in an opulently harmonically lined and quite polyphonic strict 4-part movement (A). This song movement is followed by a trio, which is a little more agitated in terms of the voices, followed by the song movement (A) and a rather strict fugue (C), which is essentially in 3 voices.
Between the fugue and its coda is Haydn's original movement in its original key (G major). The finale is now again my song movement (A), this time performed by the full organ at Lochtum.

I hope that this work sounds interesting to you, at least as far as the basic idea is concerned, and I look forward to one or two opinions on it!
