Haydn"s "Grosse Te Deum" was probably composed in 1800 for a performance given at Eisenstadt in the fall of that year. Scored with a full orchestral accompaniment, it was first published in 1802 by Breitkopf und Härtel. The score here is a newly engraved vocal score edited by Richard W. Sargeant, Jr. - in a format specially designed for maximum readability for choruses.
