Duri ng his lifetime Johann Sebastian Bach compiled an extensive music library, which today can only be reconstructed in a fragmentary manner. It reflects Bach's continued curiosity to learn about compositions of various styles and eras, a curiosity which was already present in his younger years and into his advanced age. The two complete masses and six individual movements from the Mass by Palestrina testify to Bach's interest in compositions from the 16th century. During his Weimar years Bach initially used these works to study the stile antico, with its characteristic voice leading and modal harmonies. In the last years of his life, Bach planned performances of at least two of the masses. In this connection he added instrumental parts and a basso continuo to these works. The Palestrina masses arranged by Bach comprise an important document for the performance practice in the 18th century of works in the strict style.

Rosner's choral masses are cantus firmus masses that blend the techniques of the Renaissance masters with a contemporary harmonic language and rhythmic idiom. They are exceptionally compelling works designed for strong choirs and will make a stunning impact in performance. Published by: Zimbel Press.

Both large-scale masses by Robert Fayrfax included in this volume are believed to be late works. O quam glorifica, in particular, was composed in 1511 for his supplication for the degree of Doctor of Music at Oxford, and in it the composer comprehensively explores the possibilities of extended structural planning. A feature of this edition is the restoration of the metrical character of the original, distorted in all surviving copies. Probably predating O quam glorifica, Tecum principium exhibits a simpler form, and is remarkable for the stylistic feature of unprepared dissonant fourths in the final section of the Agnus dei.

In 1984, Marty Haugen released his Mass of Creation. For the next thirty years it enjoyed the distinction of being perhaps the most performed mass setting in Roman Catholic worship. Now, more than five years after the release of the revised Order of Mass 2010, the revised edition of Mass of Creation has once again surfaced as the most popular setting in the GIA catalog. In response to its popularity, Marty has crafted two eucharistic prayer settings: Eucharistic Prayer III (with five varied prefaces) and Eucharistic Prayer II for Children, complete with all the additional acclamations.
