Mass in B minor

Bach’s Mass in B minor ranks among the most admired works of European music. In this mon - umental setting of the Mass text, composed toward the end of his life, the Leipzig master created a breathtaking compendium of his compositional mastery. Nearly a hundred years would pass before the work was performed in its entirety, by which time it had come to be regard - ed as an immortal monument to human creativ - ity and to the unsurpassed genius of its creator.
