Thank you so much for the invaluable information. I guess, there are two
unresolved issues:

Is the anthem in question, "Goot verhalte unser Kaiser" which is also used
in one of the slow movements in one of his String Quartets.

I am perplexed as to which Rqeuiem was played when? Moreover I am not
familiar with Michael Haydn's Requiem? Is there a recording available?

I totally agree with its being a gem... So far I a have been perusing the
Gloria section in depth... Though I must admit, in all modesty, that I am
not a musician and what is in question is not a concert but a puny radio
program.
Thanks again,
