Messe H-Moll, BWV 232

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Bach‐Collegium Stuttgart & Helmuth Rilling

The Mass in B minor (Messe H-Moll), BWV 232, is a sacred choral composition by Johann Sebastian Bach, completed in 1749. The work unites movements drawn from a variety of Baroque forms, including dense contrapuntal fugues, expansive choruses and intimate solo arias, and represents a late-career synthesis of Bach's liturgical writing and compositional techniques within the history of Western sacred music.
First released: 14th June 1989
