Duration 31 minutes. Carus Verlag #2790105. Published by Carus Verlag (CA.2790105). ISBN 9790007293994. Key: B flat major. Latin.Anyone who is familiar with Bruckner’s symphonies and great masses will probably be astonished upon hearing his Missa solemnis of 1854: can the tradition of the Viennese classics still be so clearly evident in a work by Bruckner? And yet, isn’t it also possible to hear much of Bruckner’s later style?With this edition, the earliest of Bruckner’s orchestral masses is now available as an Urtext edition. It reflects the latest scholarly research, and the complete performance material is available on sale. Compared with Bruckner’s late masses, the demands on chorus and soloists are considerably less. The horns play in just two movements and can be replaced by trombones. This rarely performed work offers many choirs an exciting alternative to the better-known masses – not only for the Bruckner anniversary in 2024! Score available separately - see item CA.2790100.
