Wow @ 8:44 ... someone with suffieient talent and imagination ought to develop this gorgeous fugato into a full choral fugue. Mozart has laid out the ingredients here.
thank you for posting this comrade, I heard this during the midnight Christmas mass last year in St. Peter's abbey, Salzburg. I was captivated by the Dona Nobis Pacem... I knew that it was a Mozart missa but I forgot the specifics numbering etc... But now, I found it again while listening random Mozart stuff in youtube.
Here's a fun fact: in his book "Haydn, Mozart and the Viennese School", Daniel Heartz tells of a set of parts dating from 1810 that bears an inscription forbidding this Mass’s future performance because the piece is a “mockery of the holy text.”
@@hoseinexile07 the Kyrie, and the Dona Nobis Pacem, both feature bright and delightful tunes - the latter has been compared to the conclusion of Entführung. Some Austrian Catholics of the time might have thought that the text “Lord, have mercy” and “Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world, grant us peace” needed more grave or humble music, instead of bright and catchy tunes. Similar sentiments, with more or less severity, have been put forth by others. Stravinsky referred to Mozart masses, in passing, as “rococo-operatic sweets of sin.”
@@michaelp4657 Thanks! That's so funny on all counts. I'll have to listen to Entführung Aus Dem Serail again to see if I can detect similarities. I'm Catholic and a Mozart fan (his Ave Verum Corpus is one of my favorite pieces of music ever written), so this is definitely in my wheelhouse.

Written around aged 20, this is Mozart at his humourous best. A wonderful performance.
I find it very playful and joyfull and youthful ... lovely!
I like when the music goes, "Boop boop boop boop do do do do bop ding ding la la la" It's lovely
Mozart wrote music for his social soprano friend. The Mozart soprano music is exquisite

I wish someday I will be able to do so. But I doubt that will ever happen if I'm honest haha.
@@Ivan_1791 Do try
@@alexnomad5382 Thanks for the encouragement. Maybe I will try it next summer.
Wonderful voices may the good Lord bless you all

I didn't know this! That's very interesting (and very mozartian :D ).
...Wait, what? How was this piece considered blasphemous?

this is a Missa brevis, not a full-scale mass though
You're totally right, I'll fix it!

Which choir? Director? Soloists? Please, some more information....

@@SPscorevideos Thanks a lot. I couldn't find it (too old!)
Anyone interested in turning that Sanctus into a proper fugue?
Me, but I don't have the talent. :')
Just no for me. Not very solemn for mass. It's not an opera production, the choir at church singing this but I find it very distructing.
it isn't a solemn mass though. just a normal mass a short mass
Solemn needn't be dull.
