Hohe Messe in H-Moll, BWV 232

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Dresdner Kammerchor & Kölner Kammerorchester & Helmut Müller‐Brühl

The Mass in B minor (Hohe Messe in H-Moll), BWV 232, is a late sacred choral work by Johann Sebastian Bach, completed in 1749. The work synthesises a wide range of Baroque vocal and instrumental forms across extended movements, combining intricate counterpoint, expansive choral writing and varied solo arias, and it functions as a summation of Bach's sacred music output at the end of his career.
