To a greater extent than almost any others, Mozart's Masses combine a very high degree of artistic accomplishment and tonal beauty with fulfilment of the demands made by the Liturgy. Even the textually expansive movements Gloria and Credo are, in most of Mozart's Masses, short enough to meet the requirements of a festive service, today as in his time. The choral parts are not too difficult for well-trained amateur singers. Score and parts available separately - see item CA.4062900.

This Litany consists of six movements divided into nine different, distinguished sections. Clearly, Mozart used as models for his work the sacramental litanies of his Salzburg predecessors and contemporaries. Score and part available separately - see item CA.4005700.

The relatively unspectacular nature of the Spaur Mass may be one of the reasons for the fact that writers on music generally refer to it only as a peripheral work, a little sister of Mozart's important church works. With regard to scoring, the Spaur Mass belongs to the category of the missa solemnis, but its brevity and its stylistic character belong far more to the missa brevis. Unlike the Organ Solo Mass KV 259, here the soloistic element - both instrumental and vocal - is clearly integrated to the background in favour of the development of the whole ensemble.

This enchanting melody is from the fourth movement of Bach’s Cantata 140 which was composed in 1731 using the parable of the wise and foolish virgins as the text. The work is beautiful in its simplicity with only three melodic lines, demonstrating Bach’s counterpoint at its best. For greatest effect it is suggested that the trumpets and trombones play behind the band or to the right and left of the stage. Bach schreef een ontelbare hoeveelheid cantates. Deze cantate, waarvan de tekst afkomstig is van de gelijkenis van de wijze en de dwaze maagden, schreef Bach in 1731 voor de 27e zondag na Drievuldigheidsdag (de eerste week van deadvent) en is gebaseerd op een koraal van Philipp Nicolai (1556-1608). Het vierde deel van de cantate, waarin Bach’s contrapunt zich van zijn meest elegante kant laat zien, werd door Philip Sparke bewerkt. Het bestaat uit drie melodielijnenen is in zijn eenvoud wonderbaarlijk mooi.Johann Sebastian Bach schrieb in seinem musikalisch überaus produktiven Leben unzählige Kantaten. Diese Kantate, deren Text vom Gleichnis der klugen und der törichten Jungfrauen handelt, schrieb er zum ersten Adventssonntag. Philip Sparke bearbeitete daraus den vierten Satz, in welchem sich Bachs Kontrapunkt von seiner elegantesten Seite zeigt, für Blasorchester. Das Stück besteht aus nur drei melodischen Linien, ist aber gerade in seiner Schlichtheit wunderschön.
