236 440. In Haydn's masses we find some excellent examples of florid accompaniments for the violins, generally as variations of the voice parts. As an especially good illustration of this method of accompanying a fugue, we quote the opening of the "Et vitam" of his first mass. We give only the voice parts with the accompaniment of the violins and the basses; the other instruments double the voices, except in a few unimportant notes.
