Kraus, Pergolesi and Mozart – three composers whose lives were taken far too early. Joseph Martin Kraus is often classified as a »Swedish Mozart«, which is not only due to the fact that he was born in the same year as the »real« Mozart and only survived him by a few months. After his untimely death, the Swede by choice fell into oblivion, wrongly so, as his C minor symphony shows. It was created in 1792 for the burial of his employer King Gustav III. from Sweden. It shares its somber, melancholic mood with the famous G minor symphony by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. Giovanni Battista Pergolesi, on the other hand, died at the young age of only 26 – but he became immortal with his »Stabat mater«, a jewel of vocal Baroque literature.
