Mass in A-Flat Major

SKU: BR.PB-5316

ISBN 9790004212349. 6.5 x 9 inches.

To strive for the highest in art - these are the words with which Franz Schubert announced his A flat major Mass in 1828, a work which he designated as Missa solemnis in his autograph. Alone the genesis of the work shows the importance which the composer placed on this work. Schubert wrote the score between 1819 and 1822, an unusually long period of time for him. He later fundamentally revised the mass when he applied for the post of Vice Court Kapellmeister in Vienna, which he did not obtain. After this disappointment, he rejected his original intent of dedicating the mass to the Emperor or Empress. Thanks to Peter Jost's Breitkopf Urtext edition, Schubert's Missa solemnis once again adds its luster to the publisher's catalogue: Breitkopf & Hartel published its final version in the Schubert Gesamtausgabe in 1887. Previously Jost produced an equally exemplarily prepared edition of Schubert's E flat major Mass D 950.Wie immer bei Breitkopf ist das Satzbild der Neuausgabe der Zweitfassung in der Gestalt vorbildlich. (Goede, Kirchenmusikfuhrer)Eine Ausgabe, die hochsten wissenschaftlichen Anspruch mit bester Praktikabilitat ganz selbstverstandlich verbindet. (Chor aktuell)

ISBN 9790007085469. Key: A flat major. Language: Latin.

Franz Schubert's Mass in A-flat major: A work that time and again occupied the composer anew, with which he, in his words, strived towards the highest in art - and perhaps only wished to receive a court appointment in Vienna. His efforts to present a new, individual mass led, at any rate, to unconventional solutions (and an unusual key), a renunciation of plain acclamation, a reduction of pathos in favor of an exceptionally elaborate composition, particularly the first part - a brilliant missa solemnis for the ceremonious organization of the court church service and, at the same time, the public presentation of an ambitious composer's artistic competence. Score and part available separately - see item CA.4065900.

Striving for the highest in art - this is how Schubert announced his A-flat major Mass to the Schott publishing house in 1828. The statement can also be seen as an artistic credo applicable to his last great mass, which the composer wrote that same year but whose first performance in October 1829 he no longer lived to experience. Since a source-critical new edition of the E-flat major Mass is a must for Breitkopf & Hartel's catalogue, Peter Jost has taken up this challenge and come up with a compelling edition that does justice to the high demands of the Breitkopf Urtext collection.
