Special Instructions
J.S.Bach's Mass in B Minor sits at the very pinnacle of the achievements of humankind. Shoulder to shoulder with such magnificent and breathtaking inspirational works as the Sistine Chapel, the Pyramids of Giza, the plays of Shakespeare, and the works of the Ballet Russes. Its musical majesty, virtuosic writing and spriitual breadth have endeared it to generations of performers and audiences alike. In the words of Swiss composer and publisher Hans Georg Nagli, "It is the greatest artwork of all times and people."
Written at the end of his life, the Mass sums up the entirety of Bach's career into a trancendent materpiece of hope and faith.
