Composer:
Johann Sebastian Bach

Artist(s):
Cantus Colln

Conductor:
Konrad Junghanel

Background: The four Masses BWV233-236, composed in Leipzig between 1735 and 1744, consist for the most part of parodies and reworkings of cantata movements. As a result the four 'little' masses were long considered second-rate music; as is demonstrated by the small number of recordings available.

However it soon becomes apparent that Bach succeeded in placing the reworked material in an entirely new and perfectly coherent context, limited to the Kyrie and Gloria, with just six numbers in each mass.
