Mass In D For Solo Voices, Or Small Chorus, Chorus And Orchestra (1893) - Antonín Dvorák - Bog

""Mass in D for Solo Voices, or Small Chorus, Chorus and Orchestra"" is a musical composition by Czech composer Antonin Dvorak, written in 1893. As the title suggests, the piece is a mass setting, intended for use in a religious service. It features solo voices, a small chorus, and a full orchestra.The mass is divided into six sections, including the Kyrie, Gloria, Credo, Sanctus, Benedictus, and Agnus Dei. The music is characterized by Dvorak's signature style, which blends elements of traditional Czech folk music with classical forms and harmonies. The piece is known for its lush melodies, rich harmonies, and powerful choral passages.Despite its religious subject matter, ""Mass in D"" is not a purely sacred work. Dvorak's use of folk-inspired melodies and rhythms is evidence of his desire to create a distinctly Czech style of classical music. The piece was well-received upon its premiere, and has since become a staple of the choral and orchestral repertoire.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
