Album by Jakub Jan Ryba & Jaroslava Vymazalová & Marie Mrázová & Beno Blachut & Zdeněk Kroupa & Pražský filharmonický sbor & Symfonický orchestr hlavního města Prahy FOK & Václav Smetáček

Czech Christmas Mass is a choral composition by Jan Jakub Ryba, composed in 1796. Blending folk-influenced melodies with classical liturgical structures, the mass features accessible choral writing and pastoral harmonic language, and it occupies a prominent place in Czech choral repertoire and the country's late 18th-century sacred music tradition.
First released: 1966
