    Mozart: Laudate Dominum (is not a paino concerto, sorry)

    Vesperae solennes de confessore, K. 339, is a sacred work composed in 1780 by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. It is scored for SATBsoloists, SATB choir, violin I, violin II, 2 trumpets, 3 trombones colla parte, 2 timpani, and basso continuo (violoncello, double bass, andorgan, with optional bassoon obbligato).
    It was composed for liturgical use in the Salzburg Cathedral.[1] The title "de confessore" was not Mozart's own, and was added by a later hand to his manuscript. It suggests that the work was intended for vespers held on a specific day on the liturgical calendar of saints("confessors"); however, the saint in question has not been conclusively established.[2] This was Mozart's final choral work composed for the cathedral.[3]
