Wonderful rendition! This Grosse Messe KV 427 is like a revelation with its genius obvious to everyone. As if we were involved in a wonderful journey towards a goal still unknown. This consert has all we need concerning musical power, commitment, nearness and beauty. And a chance for us to get familiar with one of our fellow citizens of this world, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
The woman who sang Kyrie Eleison is beautiful and has such a moving powerful voice. I'm sure Mozart would be proud.lol Thank God you people exist 🙏🙌🙄❤😌👏🙏🙌
I've been jokingly saying that I am Mozart but when I listen to this or pieces that I'm unfamiliar with I cannot but help but be moved by the beauty of the music. Such unspeakable beauty. WOW
In einer Zeit wie dieser, wo es dem Bösen mit aller Macht gestattet ist zu wirken, ist das ein ganz besonderer, spiritueller Hörgenuss, voller göttlicher Intuition! Eine Hoffnung!
I think it's so great that people continue to be born blessed with such wondrous voices to be able to recreate these performances. Much Kudos and many thanks!
For those of you who haven't seen it I highly recommend the making documentary of Amadeus. It's on RU-vid. The one with Spanish subtitles. It's really something else. Amazing what a movie can do. Truly amazing!! I saw it as a child and it stayed with me all these years. One of the gentlemen in charge of production even said that his one great achievement in making the film was the number of people who would now know who Mozart was and be introduced to his music. For me revisiting Mozart as an adult, like books that I was supposed to or tried to read as a youngster, has taken on an entirely new meaning. Life enrichment does not even begin to describe it. It's a life changer! Love affair if you will. WOLFGANG AMADEUS MOZART, Immortal Beloved may you rest in peace and live on forever and never be forgotten
I cannot stop admiring this uptaking. I think the clue is a relatively small music ensamble combined with good solists and an angel choir whose voices, like in this case, are heard from above :-)
In the documentary about the making of the movie Amadeus Milos Forman recalled that Peter Shaffer when he realized that was standing in the very same place where Mozart once stood he was off in a corner crying 😢 And now I can completely understand why.
So thankful that people continue to keep this wondrous classical music alive! Feels like it keeps it present and new like this music just came out even though in fact it was created hundreds of years ago. Lol
And up until today I've only been praising the first singer but after watching some more I'm quite taken aback by the second singer as well! WOW WOW 😅 As well as the entire orchestra of course conductor too. The crazy thing is that she sat there so humbly and then stood up to unleash a powerful and wonderfully beautiful voice! WOW! It reminded me of the priests at St. Patrick's cathedral who also sit very humbly before they get up to speak. 😀 I also love how they smiled at each other when they both stood up. LMFAO 😀
"It was clear to me that that sound I heard in the archbishop's palace had been no accident. This was the very voice of God!!" - Antonio Salieri in Amadeus. Lol 😆
And when she sang Kyrie Eleison, Christe Eleison I could easily understand why priests and these singers bowed their heads in deference. WOW WOW 😅 something about the beauty of it makes you bow your head in deference to it. Mozart was really something else! LMFAO 😀 hahaha
What is the name of the matron who sang Christe Eleison please? She seems to personify the word dignified: showing a composed and serious manner that is worthy of respect 🙏 👏 🙌 👍 👌 😀 🙏
Katharina´s rendition of Et Incarnatus Est is, in my opinion, one of the best on youtube. Kudos to her. Sarah´s swaying about is totally unnecessary, she almost made me sea-sick.
The term genius appears to me to be painfully inadequate to describe the mind of the man from whom we find the genesis of this work and of all of his works! WOW WOW 😅
What started off as a mild languid interest albeit jumpstarted by the movie Amadeus has turned into an absolute love affair. Long live Mozart!!! LMFAO 😀 hahaha?
Grundsätzlich wunderbare Aufführung. Schade nur, dass die Kameraführung teilweise so unkoordiniert wirkt und vorher offenbar die Partitur nicht angeschaut wurde (in Teil 10. hat es doch auch geklappt). Es empfiehlt sich wirklich, dieses Werk ohne Bild zu hören. Das ist sehr schade.
WDR Klassik. Why is this not searchable on "Great mass in C minor"? You have to write Grosse Messe. Im sure you will miss a lot of listeners because of this circumstance. Just an advice.
Thanks for your concern. But we do have the english name in the tags as well, so it is searchable on "Great mass in C minor". No Idea why you couldn't find it.
What I find so strange is that this music was written hundreds of years ago and I believe that the impact is still the same. Just as powerful today as it must have been in Mozart's time as well as the other famous composers whose music has lived on to this day. Even with all the variety of music that has been made since then I still feel that nothing can quite compare to this. It's in a class of its own for sure. I can think of nothing more elegant and elevated music than music such as this. Truly transcends humanity almost. Like it came down to us from the heavens. And if you watch the movie Amadeus you see that there is constant reference made to God. With music like this there is no other suitable reference point. How else to describe this? When I hear this it seems to go straight to the heavens, beyond our comprehension.
And in the movie Salieri when trying to describe Mozart's music says that it seemed to him that he was hearing the voice of God. There's just no other way to make sense of this. In my mind all other music deals with earthly things and this music instead of inhabiting the earthly realm of existence and human affairs shines straight upward into the heavens especially a mass like this. Although he did have operas that deal with mundane things. Lol
La messe en ut mineur K.427 (KV.417a), dite grande messe (en allemand Große Messe), est une œuvre inachevée de Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart composée entre 1782 et 1783. Elle est considérée comme supérieure à toutes les autres messes composées par Mozart, hormis son Requiem. Wikipédia merci
And just in trying to describe and compliment this music I see why that young Jesuit priest was listening to Mozart in his room LMFAO 😀 hahaha In looking up the word deference I learned two new things. Deference as in humble submission and respect due to elders and came home early in deference to his/her parents wishes. You can either go up or down people! LMFAO 😀 hahaha Just in trying to describe this music I see how it can change you. LMFAO 😀 hahaha it's almost as if different types of music exist in different worlds and different types of spaces. But that may be obvious. LMFAO 😀 hahaha But this music is as close to the heavens as one can get in my opinion for I feel that it is so above everything that I can completely understand why references to God and heaven are often made when people try to describe it. It must be as close as one can get to approaching the mystery and majesty of God that we as humans can get. I'm sure of this.
