Composer:
Heinrich Ignaz Franz Biber

Artist(s):
English Concert Choir

Conductor:
Andrew Manze

Background: Biber was considered the greatest violinist of his day, so it is appropriate that Andrew Manze, directing The English Concert, stamps his particular brand of fire and virtuosity on the Missa Christi Resurgentis. This Easter mass was brought to light after languishing in a Czech monastery for three centuries.

Following the Salzburg custom of interspersing the mass sections with instrumental works, the liturgical elements are replaced by instrumental music by Biber and Schmelzer. An early work, the mass bears Biber's hallmark natural expressivity and Manze with the English Concert bring to it a ringing vibrancy.
