Léo Delibes: Messe brève: 2-Part ChoirFormat : Sheet music In his 'Messe brève' Delibes did not set the 'Credo' and 'Benedictus' to music but after the 'Sanctus' he included a setting of 'O salutaris hostia' a customary section of the 'mass in France. However the appearance of the directions 'tutti' and 'soli' in the Mass points to the use of a choir; the solo passages are to be sung by members of the choir as they correspond musically to the tutti sections which follow and are therefore to be understood as merely providing contrasting levels of sound within the movement.
Instrumentation : Choeur SA et Orgue
