Grosse Messe c-moll, KV 427

Album by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart & Maria Stader & Hertha Töpper & Ernst Haefliger & Ivan Sardi & Ferenc Fricsay

The Great Mass in C minor, K. 427, is an unfinished mass by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, composed in 1782–1783. Musically it combines Classical orchestral and choral textures with operatic solo writing and contrapuntal passages, showcasing rich harmonic language and dramatic contrasts, and as an unfinished large-scale sacred work begun around the time of his marriage and move to Vienna it marks a notable development in Mozart's approach to liturgical composition.
