An Exploration of The Mass
For over 650 years, musical settings of the Latin Mass have been a benchmark for composers, with the best signifying an arrival into the pantheon of composers. And if we look at the this body of work as a whole, we begin to see breadth and depth of musical development throughout the ages, while the timelessness of the Latin Mass serves to keep each work from being turned into an archival footnote. The Master Singers of Worcester are very proud to present a concert devoted to the study of the Latin Mass on Sunday, November 18, at 4:00 pm at Salem Covenant Church. We will present movements of the Latin Mass from composers ranging from Bach to Beethoven to Bernstein, from Palestrina to Ola Gjello. It promises to be a concert to awaken the soul and uplift the spirit. Please join us.
