About

The celebrated British conductor Andrew Manze conducts the Bachchor Salzburg and the Camerata Salzburg in this new realisation of Mozarts Mass in C minor. The performance uses a new score reconstructed and edited by the renowned musicologist and Mozart expert Ulrich Leisinger. Comparing several editions of the Mass from Mozarts time found in and around Salzburg, Leisinger discovered many parallels between each score and other clues to help complete any missing parts. Featuring a stellar quartet of soloists including Carolyn Sampson, this live performance from the Großer Saal of the Mozarteum Foundation in Salzburg also includes Leopold Mozarts rarity Litaniae Lauretanae.

October 2020

The two sopranos acquit themselves well...The Camerata Salzburg field modern instruments but with natural trumpets and shallow timpani with hard sticks. Filming is not particularly imaginative...although the Mozarteum’s gilded organ is a delight. Not a Mass for the ages, perhaps, but a worthwhile opportunity to hear a new view of Mozart’s ‘other’ great (unfinished) sacred masterpiece.
