Mass in B minor

Album by Johann Sebastian Bach & Jenny Hill & Dame Janet Baker & Peter Pears & John Shirley‐Quirk & Philharmonia Chorus & Philharmonia Orchestra & Carlo Maria Giulini

Mass in B minor is a musical composition by Johann Sebastian Bach, completed in 1749. The work is a large-scale Late Baroque choral setting of the Latin Mass that combines intricate counterpoint, varied solo arias and full choral movements with Baroque orchestral textures, and it occupies a culminating position in Bach's output, drawing together material and techniques from across his career.
