Mass in B Minor

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & The Sixteen

Mass in B minor is a setting of the Latin Mass by Johann Sebastian Bach, completed in 1749. The work synthesises late Baroque choral and instrumental techniques through dense counterpoint, shifting solo and ensemble textures and wide expressive contrasts, and serves as a summation of Bach's liturgical compositional output.
