When I studied abroad in Austria, I lived in Salzburg for a semester. It just happened to be during all the Solemnities after Easter. And being a faithful Catholic I attended Mass each Sunday. One Sunday we had this Mozart Mass. it was phenomenal. Then i spent a weekend in Vienna and that Sunday was the Haydn Nelson Mass. i never wanted to return home to the States.
I'm singing this piece with the Chorus of the Royal Northern Sinfonia on Saturday night, which is why I'm listening yet again to this performance. By coincidence, and after reading your comment, I'm also singing the Nelson Mass with a different choir next weekend. I also feel they bookend each other very well.
Quite so. Having been brought up in a Christian tradition that had precisely zero music (Quaker), I remember being baffled when I first came across these musical masses that make so much of a handful of words, now I understand that it turns them into a prayer, and that 'less is more' very much applies here, and that allows the emotion to flow.
What a wonderful, uplifting experience. When people get into this kind of music and are able to perform it, I think it takes them to a new level of appreciation of the potential of humanity, the beauty we can create TOGETHER, and it makes us much less cynical.
Listening to this in the back yard under a maple tree my late dad planted 50 years ago as darkness slowly over takes the day. The simplest pleasures are the most joyful...
I thought my reply was gonna be a little "dark", but these first two responders got me out-gloomed and out-doomed for sure! (All I was gonna say is, "it sure would be nice if they still had this kind of music at Catholic Church)... Jeez guys, mellow out!
And perhaps renews/restores your appreciation for the culture, history, and legacy that produced such beauty, which would be..? Because it isn't _all_ of humanity.
This is one of main outstanding works of Mozart.The musical strength touches us deeply in our soul. I think there is no one who can remain indifferent to this extraordinary musical work developed by this glorious genius. The vocal performance and the orchestra are amazing. Mozart’s music makes any human interior emotion vibrate. He is the greatest compositor that ever existed so far.
❤ Greatest tunesmith known to mankind. ;-) No composer had a more profound understanding of the human voice, in my humble opinion. The Piano Sonatas are so deceivingly difficult, I chose to be a piano technician instead. Mozart sounds even more amazing on a Bechstein or a Bosendorfer. Wow! ❤

I live on a First Nation in Canada and it is -40°C right now. Not as cold as some I know. This warms my heart and comforts my mind. What a genius! I can imagine what he thought of his patrons and what they thought of him. Such a different world, eh? But he does speak to us all. Thank you, Maestro!
How universal is music and the supreme genius Mozart. How wonderful to know centuries, continents and peoples are united by this great piece which penetrates the human heart.
At -40°C or -40°F - they are bpth equally cold! Better wear a mask while singing, even Mozart. I hope to sing this next autumn (April) Bass 1. I hope I'm up to it. - I've already started to practise.
"Quonian tu solus" is too beautiful to listen. Mozart's composition talents are unlimited. Once Tchaikovsky said the center of Christianity is Jesus and center of music must be Mozart which I agree.
God is long dead. Mozart yet lives in those many tens of millions of humans who swoon when we hear his music even though we have lived more than 50 years ourselves and heard it thousands times and thousands more may yet to come. Will the next Mozart come in my lifetime and will my ear bend to his/her genius?
Even as a devout Wagnerian, I still constantly find myself returning to Mozart, not only because he's on the Mount Rushmore of composers without question, but also because his music is accessible, to a degree that Wagner, Bach, and even Beethoven to a degree isn't. I listened to Mozart as an infant, and I know plenty of musically daft people who love Mozart. The same cannot be said for Wagner. As with all art, the more you know about music, the more you can appreciate Mozart, but knowledge isn't a prerequisite for actually listening to it.
The Perfect Performance; solos, chorus, orchestra, conducting, even the quality sounds from each instruments. This makes me wonder what I've done good to deserve this uncontrollable feeling of fulfillment and emotional happiness. Thank you, thank you, thank you...
I once sang this with a chorus at Carnegie Hall. I remember as we sang "Pleni sunt coelis et terra" I thought, I must be in heaven. It was the most extraoardinary feeling. And then came the "cum sanctis"...Oh, Mozart.
'Pleni sunt coeli et terra' is part of the Sanctus at 44:58 The 'Cum sanctis' is part of the Lux Aeterna, which has no part in this mass, but it does in the Requiem Mass (of which Mozart also composed one)
Once I was listening to the Qui Tollis with my eyes closed and I felt as though my spirit was ascending away from my body into the heavens. I later looked up the Latin translation of the meaning: “he who raises.” Did Mozart really make this music to make you have this experience? Astounding!
Qui tollis peccata mundi means "who takes away the sins of the world". Here is a pdf with translations from Latin: nyphil.org/~/media/pdfs/program-notes/1920/Mozart-Mass-in-C-minor-Great.pdf Where did you get "He who raises" from?
lmao sorry to take away from your experience, but in no way does "Qui Tollis" mean "he who raises". It means "he who takes away [something from someone, in this case sin]".
what kind of soul brain and heart could create such a thing? this is just a miracle. such a deep sophisticated so astonish spiritual experince.so intricated but also soo deep human as any music.
Alejandro Sosa You started out so well, then your English plummeted. What happened? You meant: Such a deep sophistication, such an astonishing spiritual experience, intricate and also deeply human music.
Sharon Vegan Amram I agree. As wonderful as Bach is, his music is less of this world, less human, yet so very intricate, w/o the worldly sophistication that Mozart could carry alone on his small shoulders. Miraculous, indeed.
Fabulous performance! The soloists are perfection! The conductor is fabulous… The choir is outstanding! The best performance I have ever heard. My only sadness is I was not able to experience it in person! Thank God this is available on RUclips! Thank you! This is the most wonderful concert I have ever heard! Mozart created the most sublime piece of music in this mass! Thank you bringing it to life with this performance!
So lovely, an outstanding performance I was going to listen to while cleaning the kitchen, I quickly stopped it and played it when I took a break and wound up not stopping till it was over, Bravo, Brava, Bravos,
Ha! I was right. Mozart was trying to recast and re-clothe some of the glory of Handel's "antique" compositions and give them new life. I've often thought he was lifting from Handel but in those days it was considered a high compliment, a tribute, and a way of introducing Handel to a new audience. A Bravo 👏 🎉❤!
Though I agree that it is an absolute beauty, Amadeus is not history, but phantasy, and Salieri probably never really said what is in Amadeus. Nonetheless, if he did not actually said so, he should have. This Mass is an absolute beauty from start to end. RT incarnatus est is also just an absolute beauty. The 27 year old Mozart that wrote this was already a master of composition. In my opinion Mozart was God.
Though I agree that it is an absolute beauty, I hope you realize that Amadeus is a fantasy play and movie, and NOT history. It has elements of history and truth but it seems probable that Salieri never said what is in Amadeus. Salieri was very successful in Mozart’s time, whereas to the Viennese ‘s eternal shame Mozart died penniless. The only city city that treated Mozart consistently well through his life was Prague. All others treated him well at times, but ultimately abandoned Mozart reducing him shamefully to extreme poverty. Mozart was also the first composer that had no noblemen sponsoring him, but an independent artist that made his living with his music. A true pioneer, not only with his marvelous compositions, but also in this innovative way that he made money to live.
@@caltamino I agree with you Mr. Isvan. I know it’s a fantasy play full of scenes having no relation with the true history, but as you said, the piece remains an absolute beauty, regardless it was really said by Salieri or not. Thanks for sharing your opinion. Have a great day Sir.
@@gaboh296 k.427 was completed by Mozart, his k.626 though was not finished. It seemed you implied that the piece of this video is incomplete, that's all
Magnificent performance! This piece resembles the absoluteness of what music can represent. I can't even describe what feelings I get when I'm listening to it! In my opinion Mozart was, and is the greatest musician and composer ever to be alive.
Magically moving! Touches humanity at its very core! Connects man with his maker as only Mozart can! Stupendous performance! Thanks for the post! Jamshed K Delvadavala from Mumbai.
how can anything be that beautiful? Sends chills. Makes me weep at the end. I was fortunate enough to sing this decades ago. One of the greatest blessings in my life.
Zubin Meta conducted the Los Angeles Philharmonic to the great Mozart's Mass in Cm which was such a holy listening experience for me. I believe I floated off the ground.
Weet niet hoevaak ik geluisterd hebt naar deze fantastische compositie, maar deze uitvoering is de beste. De jongens achter de mengtafel hebben hun kennis goed gebruikt. In tegenstelling tot ve!e masters is deze opname zonder vervorming en ook de akoestiek opgenomen. 🤗 Meesterlijke uitvoering deze muzikanten en zangers zijn 👍
Mozart is a legend composer like Bach. I adore his music. Besides, now i was listening to a super giant chorus with excellent soloist voices who touched my heart so easily. Special thanks to the conductor...he was really a giant one. Thanks for uploading.
La interpretacion de esta oerquesta es un verdadero tributo a Mozart por este Kyrie de otro mundo....siempre me he preguntado como un ser humano como Mozart por mas genio musical real que fue haya hecho este movimiento tan lleno de sensibilidad la verdad incomprensible y lo escucho en semana santa ...pareciera sonar mejor....la melodia del kyrie es de lo mas grandios que he escuchado jamas....gracias....
I had the pleasure of singing this magnificent Mass at the end of November 1976, performed at the Maurice Ravel auditorium in Lyon. Almost 20 years later, in another choir, I sang the oratorio "David penitente" by the same Mozart, whose choirs take up, with a few details, the choirs of this Great Mass. So it was with emotion that I listened to this recording. However, I allow myself a small criticism: some parts are very fast, in particular the Gloria, and I find that this detracts from the solemnity of the work. 💒💒💒
@@DanielFahimi im not understanding what are you talking about, my post is about a scene of the movie 'amadeus', exactly in this part of the music, salieri lets the sheet music fall to the ground( he was reading the music for the first time), so, mozart's wife ask him: "Is it not good?" and he answer: "It is miraculous"
I fell in love with Opera as a teenage when I first heard The Magic Flute, still my favorite opera along with others of his. It took me a long while after to also catch on to Jazz or other non-classical music. I love all of Mozart's music!
Due gg fa ho ascoltato la messa di Mozart eseguita da coro e orchestra in una chiesa in provincia di Vicenza. La musica dal vivo e' un potente attivatore di energie mentali e fisiche. Un effetto sul sistema endocrino e sistema immunitario. In maniera piacevolissima, ogni nota fa vibrare in noi sensazioni di grandezza, di rispetto e timor di dio.
If you believe in some kind of god...Listen to me dear IsaacandMary, respect all people without faith, your dogmatic way to express your opinion is wrong. Try to express your own ideas thinkin' different ideas of others...Ir's better. Anyway you're not the only one humans on the earth...
To quote F Murray Abraham " the very voice of God was singing through this man". Mozart, the single greatest musical mind that will ever exist. I am so thankful I lived after all the masters and wasn't deprived of all the joy they left for us.
@@gaboh296 no, bach has nearly 200 cantatas, all lasting for half an hour. Each cantata is so different from each other, and so advanced in terms of harmony and counterpoint (there is a video of glenn gould discusing the harmony at the begining of a bach cantata) and remember that cantatas are only a small part of the entire bach catalogue and they were written in a short period of time. Mozarts music is simpler and the ammount of music he wrote is no match compared to bach. Also, in my opinion and that of the majority of musicians no one reached the level of expression of bachs music, listen to the chaccone or the Mathews passion or his cello suites, etc.
This may be the greatest of all Mozart's works, not only his finest sacred piece. Much of the choral sections are massive in scope, and in their brilliant complexity must challange the artists greatly. But this isnt complexity for the sake of complexity. Their is a real joy being expressed in that complexity of the divine through the music's own dexterity. In North America, the Great Mass is performed at about one-twentieth the rate given to the Requiem. Not hard to see why. It is more difficult, has the tag of being incomplete, and lacks the mystery of the circumstances surrounding the composition of the Requiem. The Requiem, was also, of course left incomplete. I wouldnt want to be without both compositions. This performance is the best live version I have seen. Great tenor section in the choir, amazing soloists, and a conductor revealing all the glory of this enigmatic work. Thanks for this download.
I agree with many of what you said about k427, but not at all about America. First, k427 (the Great Mass in C minor) is indeed played much less than k626 (the Requiem), and the 1/20 ratio you claim looks correct to me, BUT this ratio is the same in France or else, due to many factors. First, the "troops" required are much bigger for k427 (e.g. TWO full and high-quality SATB choirs), and the length is higher. Second, Sußmayr had just to create the missing parts in a canvas that was already weaved (which he did very well, no matter the easy critics), while the numerous ones who helped complete k427 (essentially Schmitt 1901 and Landon 1956 in facts) had to make many more inventions, additions, decisions and choices. Third, due to the 3 previous reasons, k626 is so often performed that people are accustomed to it and sometimes tend to forget why they love it: it is really an exceptional piece. There are many classical pieces that are many times played and replayed, I skip most, but I generally go to k626 and never regret it despite the number of times (I first heard it in... 1951). Fourth, insinuating that Americans would be less culturally educated than Europeans is just as ridiculous as any other Goebbels-style lie _("a lie, 100-time repeated, _*_IS_*_ a truth")._ Unfortunately Goebbels lies, as ridiculous as they first appear, always finally become "truths" after sufficient number of repeats and decades... (I have many and various records of k427, and the main complete scores, with choirs, orchestras and soloists, including Alois Schmitt and Landon. And I worked and sang it, in the choir) Mon 11 Mar 2019 18:10 GMT
In an appreciation of Mozart by James Ringo his words define this masterpiece. " You will find here one of the exhalted products of mans spirt, a testament to the high degree of perfection attainable by mortal clay".
Shut up! Do you know that was just a movie? Do you know that Mozart often changed entre passages of His pieces and used to improvise a Lot? That stupid quote from that stupid movie gives ppl a wrong View about what music Is about. Instead I prefer a real quote "to miss a note Is insignificant, to play without passion Is inexcusable" L.V. Beethoven
Haydn's Nelson Mass, which I heard in Salzburg, wasn't much to my taste, but imagine Salzburg under a light snow, March 29, 1970, Easter, my twenty-fourth birthday, touring around after eighteen months' study at the Sorbonne in Paris...heavenly. Well, back to the (very) Great C-minor Mass! Hail, RUclips!
Cette œuvre n'est d'après ce j'ai lu pas la "commande" d'un puissant de l'époque : voilà donc le résultat quand Wolfie associe à son talent une inspiration sincère et plus spontanée : on quitte l'exceptionnel pour le sublime !!!
@@TheAtheist22 okay? and they aren't the best musicians in history many songs and pieces from other cultures are better than some of bach and beethoven's pieces (and vice versa)
@@magnoooo Nonsense.... No other culture has organised music into notes and elaborate instruments. None. When the West was creating Symphonies, the rest of the World was playing sticks and plucking a fews strings. At best. Show me where your evidence is for the opposite. Like I said. NONSENSE
41:50 It's hard to believe that when this was played for the first time in front of the pope, he didn't like how the basoon had such a prominent role in this movement. I think it's one of the most beautiful parts of the entire piece.
Ahead of his time, as usual, our Amadeus. The present Pope Francis: ""The 'Et incarnatus est' from his Mass in C minor is matchless; it lifts you to God!"

Nonetheless, if he did not actually said so, he should have. This Mass is an absolute beauty from start to end. RT incarnatus est is also just an absolute beauty. The 27 year old Mozart that wrote this was already a master of composition. In my opinion Mozart was God.
Though I agree that it is an absolute beauty, I hope you realize that Amadeus is a fantasy play and movie, and NOT history. It has elements of history and truth but it seems probable that Salieri never said what is in Amadeus. Salieri was very successful in Mozart’s time, whereas to the Viennese ‘s eternal shame Mozart died penniless. The only city city that treated Mozart consistently well through his life was Prague. All others treated him well at times, but ultimately abandoned Mozart reducing him shamefully to extreme poverty. Mozart was also the first composer that had no noblemen sponsoring him, but an independent artist that made his living with his music. A true pioneer, not only with his marvelous compositions, but also in this innovative way that he made money to live.
@@caltamino I agree with you Mr. Isvan. I know it’s a fantasy play full of scenes having no relation with the true history, but as you said, the piece remains an absolute beauty, regardless it was really said by Salieri or not. Thanks for sharing your opinion. Have a great day Sir.
Thank you Mozart for this magnificent Music. I can't even describe how much I love it! Great Master he was...
If you wait few minuts, Wolfgang answer you...
I can not find the right words to describe this masterpiece and masterly performance.
Just a big Thank You is all I can think of for now !!!
I have the word for it...
"UUUUUUUUUUUUUGE"
Just imagine if he finished it
@@gaboh296 he did not finish his requiem. This one is complete.
@@brunosipavicius7867 By “he” I mean Mozart. Unless they found a completed score recently to which I’m not aware
@@gaboh296 k.427 was completed by Mozart, his k.626 though was not finished. It seemed you implied that the piece of this video is incomplete, that's all
Mozart was the most extraordinary musical vessel of The Divine in existence…God’s stenographer…
Overwhelming and breath taking. Mozart's keen and heart felt and warm expression of the Devine
Magnificent performance! This piece resembles the absoluteness of what music can represent. I can't even describe what feelings I get when I'm listening to it! In my opinion Mozart was, and is the greatest musician and composer ever to be alive.
Mozart was, and is, an Angel of God.
Magically moving!
Touches humanity at its very core! Connects man with his maker as only Mozart can!
Stupendous performance!
Thanks for the post!

how can anything be that beautiful? Sends chills. Makes me weep at the end. I was fortunate enough to sing this decades ago. One of the greatest blessings in my life.
Love how the flute player is in awe of Sophie Harmsen. Utterly majestic & spellbinding
Beautiful, Flawless Kyrie...Lord Have Mercy
i was staring to the cage of those maticulous ink strokes, at an absolute beauty.
Zubin Meta conducted the Los Angeles Philharmonic to the great Mozart's Mass in Cm which was such a holy listening experience for me. I believe I floated off the ground.
Weet niet hoevaak ik geluisterd hebt naar deze fantastische compositie, maar deze uitvoering is de beste. De jongens achter de mengtafel hebben hun kennis goed gebruikt. In tegenstelling tot ve!e masters is deze opname zonder vervorming en ook de akoestiek opgenomen. 🤗 Meesterlijke uitvoering deze muzikanten en zangers zijn 👍
As Johann Sebastian Bach is messenger of God, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart is Angel from Heaven。。。
Splendid performance of a Mozart masterpiece! 👏👏👏👏👏💐💐💐
Stupenda esecuzione, ispirata, magica. All'altezza dell'Autore
"The music is lush, great, ambitious and worldly." Worldly? I would not have chosen that word. Ethereal, perhaps, or other-worldly. Heavenly is best.
Groots, weelderig en ambitieus. Grand, sumptuous and ambitious.
Mozart is a legend composer like Bach. I adore his music. Besides, now i was listening to a super giant chorus with excellent soloist voices who touched my heart so easily. Special thanks to the conductor...he was really a giant one. Thanks for uploading.
La interpretacion de esta oerquesta es un verdadero tributo a Mozart por este Kyrie de otro mundo....siempre me he preguntado como un ser humano como Mozart por mas genio musical real que fue haya hecho este movimiento tan lleno de sensibilidad la verdad incomprensible y lo escucho en semana santa ...pareciera sonar mejor....la melodia del kyrie es de lo mas grandios que he escuchado jamas....gracias....
excellente interprétation de ce chef d’œuvre de Mozart,un moment d’anthologie de musique sacrée.merci .
What a beutiful mass. A very sound and moving performance. Dutch music is alive and well. Thank you all.
I agree, anything Dutch is generally the go to for this period music and Bach etc on you tube
I had the pleasure of singing this magnificent Mass at the end of November 1976, performed at the Maurice Ravel auditorium in Lyon. Almost 20 years later, in another choir, I sang the oratorio "David penitente" by the same Mozart, whose choirs take up, with a few details, the choirs of this Great Mass.
So it was with emotion that I listened to this recording. However, I allow myself a small criticism: some parts are very fast, in particular the Gloria, and I find that this detracts from the solemnity of the work.
💒💒💒
Brought tears so beautiful
One of the best interpretations i’ve heard AMAZING
Great Mozart music! Real pleasure.... Thanks
-- Grande version de ce chef d’œuvre. Les solistes sont excellents. L'ensemble est superbe. --
This is superb absolutely superb my only criticism would be that the ending does not sound complete.
I was not a fan of Mozart until I heard this - Never thought he had it in his soul to go to this level.
Have you listen to his Requiem? Pretty amazing too, so beautiful
Oh you need to listen to more Mozart, my friend
The purity of this soprano's scale at 3'05" is wonderful
Indeed, and her perfect diminished 2nd at 3:59. Virtuosa!
Это доходит и достает сквозь сотни лет-такая гигантская сила и энергия этой божественной музыки. Большое спасибо исполнителям за блестящее исполнение
This is just spectacular!...the soloists..the choir...the orchestra..the conductor....really the best! Thank you for sharing..:)

Every time I hear this my hairs raise on my skin. Mozart was beyond genius and don't get me started on the backstory to the requiem...
Listening to this makes me feel presence of God - Mozart must have felt the same :-)
There aren't enough superlatives to describe the brilliance of this performance.
Brought to tears every time and I don't even know why

"Is it not good?"
"It is miraculous"
Sublime...
Shut it.
@@DanielFahimi "Is it not good?"
"It is miraculous"
@@figura2000 You are not lying to me, you are lying to yourself.
@@DanielFahimi im not understanding what are you talking about, my post is about a scene of the movie 'amadeus', exactly in this part of the music, salieri lets the sheet music fall to the ground( he was reading the music for the first time), so, mozart's wife ask him: "Is it not good?"
and he answer: "It is miraculous"
Great piece of Mozart’s. I particularly like the “Qui Tollis” section. Reminds me a bit of his Requiem in parts.
Reminds me of Vivaldi
17:32 (Qui Tollis) is just so incredible.
That part always gives me goosebumps.
I agree, so very beautiful. All his minor key works are incredible. Major too, but minor more.
This is such a great and energetic performance. Full of life and crystal clear. Absolutely Mozart. Wonderful!
Sang in a
church Choir in Germany where, on Year we performed Mozarts C-moll Great Mess . The Experience of my Lifetime.
I fell in love with Opera as a teenage when I first heard The Magic Flute, still my favorite opera along with others of his. It took me a long while after to also catch on to Jazz or other non-classical music. I love all of Mozart's music!
One of Mozart’s best
Due gg fa ho ascoltato la messa di Mozart eseguita da coro e orchestra in una chiesa in provincia di Vicenza. La musica dal vivo e' un potente attivatore di energie mentali e fisiche. Un effetto sul sistema endocrino e sistema immunitario. In maniera piacevolissima, ogni nota fa vibrare in noi sensazioni di grandezza, di rispetto e timor di dio.
Oh this was glorious bravo
Fantastic performance of Sofie Harmsen in the KYrie/Eleison the best music everheard. Both my parents funeral This music was heard,
That's incredible how people hold in their coughs till the end of Qui tollis at 23:07!!!!!!!!!!! Hats off to them!
"David Penetante" , one of the most beautiful pieces of music written since God formed man from the dust of the ground.
"God formed man from the dust of the ground"
Really. That's interesting. That "ground dust" must be the Creator's imaging material.
If you believe in some kind of god...Listen to me dear IsaacandMary, respect all people without faith, your dogmatic way to express your opinion is wrong. Try to express your own ideas thinkin' different ideas of others...Ir's better. Anyway you're not the only one humans on the earth...
To quote F Murray Abraham " the very voice of God was singing through this man". Mozart, the single greatest musical mind that will ever exist. I am so thankful I lived after all the masters and wasn't deprived of all the joy they left for us.
Appreciate finally a Correct Attribution: Most people credit Salieri with this observation.
I think Mozart was one of the greats, as was Bach, Handel and Beethoven.
Bach was the greatest thoug
Marcos Sidoruk Bach lived almost twice as long as Mozart. In my opinion Mozart accomplished as much if not more in his short lifetime
@@gaboh296 no, bach has nearly 200 cantatas, all lasting for half an hour. Each cantata is so different from each other, and so advanced in terms of harmony and counterpoint (there is a video of glenn gould discusing the harmony at the begining of a bach cantata) and remember that cantatas are only a small part of the entire bach catalogue and they were written in a short period of time. Mozarts music is simpler and the ammount of music he wrote is no match compared to bach. Also, in my opinion and that of the majority of musicians no one reached the level of expression of bachs music, listen to the chaccone or the Mathews passion or his cello suites, etc.
This may be the greatest of all Mozart's works, not only his finest sacred piece. Much of the choral sections are massive in scope, and in their brilliant complexity must challange the artists greatly. But this isnt complexity for the sake of complexity. Their is a real joy being expressed in that complexity of the divine through the music's own dexterity.
In North America, the Great Mass is performed at about one-twentieth the rate given to the Requiem. Not hard to see why. It is more difficult, has the tag of being incomplete, and lacks the mystery of the circumstances surrounding the composition of the Requiem. The Requiem, was also, of course left incomplete.
I wouldnt want to be without both compositions. This performance is the best live version I have seen. Great tenor section in the choir, amazing soloists, and a conductor revealing all the glory of this enigmatic work. Thanks for this download.
Agnes Philomena this is one of my favorite works of Mozart and I fear I won’t find many compositions, by any composer, that I love as much as this.
I agree with many of what you said about k427, but not at all about America.
First, k427 (the Great Mass in C minor) is indeed played much less than k626 (the Requiem), and the 1/20 ratio you claim looks correct to me, BUT this ratio is the same in France or else, due to many factors.
First, the "troops" required are much bigger for k427 (e.g. TWO full and high-quality SATB choirs), and the length is higher.
Second, Sußmayr had just to create the missing parts in a canvas that was already weaved (which he did very well, no matter the easy critics), while the numerous ones who helped complete k427 (essentially Schmitt 1901 and Landon 1956 in facts) had to make many more inventions, additions, decisions and choices.
Third, due to the 3 previous reasons, k626 is so often performed that people are accustomed to it and sometimes tend to forget why they love it: it is really an exceptional piece. There are many classical pieces that are many times played and replayed, I skip most, but I generally go to k626 and never regret it despite the number of times (I first heard it in... 1951).
Fourth, insinuating that Americans would be less culturally educated than Europeans is just as ridiculous as any other Goebbels-style lie _("a lie, 100-time repeated, _*_IS_*_ a truth")._ Unfortunately Goebbels lies, as ridiculous as they first appear, always finally become "truths" after sufficient number of repeats and decades...
(I have many and various records of k427, and the main complete scores, with choirs, orchestras and soloists, including Alois Schmitt and Landon. And I worked and sang it, in the choir)

Have you ever heard "Davide Penitentem" K469? Hear it and have a surprise!
In an appreciation of Mozart by James Ringo his words define this masterpiece. " You will find here one of the exhalted products of mans spirt, a testament to the high degree of perfection attainable by mortal clay".
Good statement.
Have just discovered this remarkable performance ce. What a wonderful experience. Thank you
Such uplifting, glorious piece. Never tire of listening to it.
"Displace one note and there would be diminishment... displace one phrase... and the structure would fall." Salieri - Amadeus (1984)
Thanks, Sir, for that reminder. I enjoyed the movie many times.
@Interventer uh what
@Interventer what did you do?
Shut up! Do you know that was just a movie? Do you know that Mozart often changed entre passages of His pieces and used to improvise a Lot? That stupid quote from that stupid movie gives ppl a wrong View about what music Is about. Instead I prefer a real quote "to miss a note Is insignificant, to play without passion Is inexcusable" L.V. Beethoven
@@marcossidoruk8033 you must be fun at parties.
Haydn's Nelson Mass, which I heard in Salzburg, wasn't much to my taste, but imagine Salzburg under a light snow, March 29, 1970, Easter, my twenty-fourth birthday, touring around after eighteen months' study at the Sorbonne in Paris...heavenly. Well, back to the (very) Great C-minor Mass! Hail, RUclips!
Cette œuvre n'est d'après ce j'ai lu pas la "commande" d'un puissant de l'époque : voilà donc le résultat quand Wolfie associe à son talent une inspiration sincère et plus spontanée : on quitte l'exceptionnel pour le sublime !!!
Wow!! Missed all this beautiness in corona time💔 hope the Concert Halls will be opened again soon🙏🙏
Cette interprétation est extraordinaire… et l’enregistrement aussi ! ❤❤❤
I did too. I remember all the notes to this day...I sang it some 40 years ago...
Siempre me ha fascinado la Fuerza,dinamismo,solemnidad y la Potencia de esta misa.
The cultural beauty of the West.
Nowhere else in the world.
many other cultures produce better music than the west
@@magnoooo Bach wasn't from Somalia. Neither was Beethoven....I can go on and on and on.
@@TheAtheist22 okay? and they aren't the best musicians in history
many songs and pieces from other cultures are better than some of bach and beethoven's pieces (and vice versa)
@@magnoooo Nonsense.... No other culture has organised music into notes and elaborate instruments. None.
When the West was creating Symphonies, the rest of the World was playing sticks and plucking a fews strings. At best.
Show me where your evidence is for the opposite.
Like I said. NONSENSE
@@magnooooCan you name at least one of your musician better than Mozart?! Im waiting!😅
Exquisite melodies.
I only knew his requiem sacred piece. I'm loving his great mess sacred piece. Thanks for posting from São Paulo, Brazil.
41:50 It's hard to believe that when this was played for the first time in front of the pope, he didn't like how the basoon had such a prominent role in this movement. I think it's one of the most beautiful parts of the entire piece.
Ahead of his time, as usual, our Amadeus. The present Pope Francis: ""The 'Et incarnatus est' from his Mass in C minor is matchless; it lifts you to God!"
that shows that the pope has no ear for music, he probably prefers a tango to clasical music afterall he is argentinian😳
@@lesliefigueras7708 Not the current pope! Duh!!!
lol
I don’t even ‘like’ classical music. But this was outstanding.
I love some classical music and this is outstanding! ❤
great performance, clear 16th, good rhetoric!!!!!!!!!!
For me his absolutely best piece.
Mozart/Grosse messe..Superbe interpretation..tout est dit!
