Missa Solemnis

Album by Ludwig van Beethoven & Leonard Bernstein

Missa Solemnis is a solemn mass by Ludwig van Beethoven, completed in 1823. The work features expansive choral and orchestral forces and a late-Classical to early-Romantic harmonic and structural language, characterised by intricate counterpoint, wide dynamic contrasts and extended formal scope, and it occupies a prominent place in Beethoven's late output as a substantial reimagining of the mass form.
