Mass in B Minor

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Dunedin Consort & John Butt

Mass in B minor is a mass by Johann Sebastian Bach, compiled and completed in 1749. The work synthesises late Baroque choral and instrumental techniques, employing intricate counterpoint, varied vocal solo writing and expansive choral movements, and it represents a summation of Bach's sacred composition assembled near the end of his career.
