This is the first piece in a collection of music for Ash Wednesday and Holy Week, written for the Royal Chapel, Naples in 1744 (the year of Leo’s death). In four sections, the work provides the introit, gradual and tract for Ash Wednesday in a sublime polyphonic setting – much beautiful harmonic movement. A stunning work.
