Beethoven Day: 2-Part Choir: Vocal Score

SKU: CA.4068814

ISBN 9790007220365. Language: Latin.

With its tonal language of subjective avowal, the first of Beethoven's two masses opens up new worlds of expression for the liturgical texts of the Mass which are expressly modern and point towards the future. Not to be considered a preliminary work to the Missa solemnis, it is an entirely independent work which set standards for the further development of settings of the Mass in the 19th century. Its newness, of which the composer himself was fully aware (I do not speak gladly of my Mass, or of myself, but I do believe that I have treated the text in a manner in which only few have treated it.), paves a way to an hitherto unknown, contemporary avenue to faith which today is still current. Carus presents this important work of church music history in a new critical edition by the Beethoven expert Ernst Herttrich. Score and part available separately - see item CA.4068800.

The English musicologist Clive Brown thus also based part of his text-critical work on his comprehensive knowledge of the performance and notation practice of Beethovens time.Fur Orchester, die gelegentlich mit einem Chor zusammenarbeiten, auf jeden Fall zu empfehlen. Ein gerade in seiner Einmaligkeit interessantes Stuck - und auch nicht besonders schwer. Verwiesen sei noch auf das vorzugliche Vorwort des Herausgebers. (Plischke, Das Liebhaberorchester).
