Second version with the variant of the Osanna in excelsis and the Cum Sancto Spiritu-Fugue from the first version.Unlike the four early Masses Schubert did not write his fifth as the result of a request for a particular performance – he evidently intended it as a proof of the mastery to which he had attained in the meantime.The present edition presents the revised second version of the Mass. Also included as an appendix is the discarded Fugue from the first version (extant in a copy made by Schubert’s brother Ferdinand for the intended performance in 1823). This movement – unlike the later a “more modern” Fugue –corresponds to Schubert’s original concept of the Mass which in general he merely modified when revising the work rather than fundamentally altering it.- Urtext of the New Schubert Edition- Full score performance material (BA5623) and vocal score (BA5623-90) available for sale

Edited by David Rosen-The Works of Giuseppe Verdi is the first critical edition of the composer’s oeuvre. Together with his operas the series presents his songs his choral music and sacred pieces and his string quartet and other instrumental works. This edition of Messa da Requiem is based on Verdi’s autograph score and other original sources. The appendices include two pieces from the compositional history of the Requiem: an early version of the Libera me composed in 1869 as part of a collaborative work planned as a memorial to Rossini and the Liber scriptus which in the original score of the Manzoni memorial Requiem was composed as a fugue for chorus. The introduction to the score tracesthe complex compositional and performance histories of the Requiem and discusses the work’s problems of instrumentation and notation while the critical commentary gives a full description of the sources and an account of all editorial decisions.

Par BIZET GEORGES. As an acclaimed opera composer, Georges Bizet admitted that he had no real sensibility for sacred music. His Te Deum is nonetheless a truly fascinating and highly expressive work. From the majestic ?Te Deum laudamus?, to the skillful choral fugue of ?Fiat misericordia tua?, and the opening's powerful recapitulation, the composition shows no trace of the difficulties that beset the young Bizet by his own admission before he finally completed the work in 1858.In the extensive trilingual preface to this Urtext edition, editor Marc Rigaudière illuminates the circumstances surrounding the composition of the Te Deum, a work which occupies a singular position in Bizet?s ?uvre. The edition is based on the composer?s autograph score ? the work's only surviving source. For the first time, this work is available with all performance parts. / Date parution : 2023-06-01/ Répertoire / Solistes [ST], SATB et Orchestre

C-Dur. Par MOZART WOLFGANG AMADEUS. Leopold Mozart described KV 262, unlike Mozart's considerably shorter masses of the same period, as a 'Missa longa'. The prolixity of some of the movements and of concluding fugues in the 'Gloria' and 'Credo' is indeed surprising. The full orchestral scoring also emphasizes the ceremonial character of this Mass. / Messe / Répertoire / Solistes SATB, Choeur SATB, 2 Hautbois, 2 Cors, 2
