Kraus' Requiem dates from 1775 and is a youthful work (he was 19 years old), composed at Erfurt before he moved to Stockholm where he gained what fame he has today. The work combines an inspired Sturm und Drang sensibility with snatches of Mozartian grace and adds gratefully to the Kraus catalogue.

A cantate in memory of Gustav III, king of Sweden (1746 - 1792). After Gustav's assassination, Kraus, as royal Kapellmeister, was commissioned at very short notice indeed to compose music for the solemnization of his funeral. Kraus wrote a purely instrumental work: a Symphonie Funèbre. For the funeral itself, a month later, on May 14 1792, his Funeral Cantate, to words by the king's personal secretary, the poet Carl Gustav Leopold (1756 - 1829).
