The absence of both Gloria and Credo settings (these texts being too long to be easily suited to the form of a canon) probably explains the neglect, yet the four movements of this work show all the hallmarks of Brahms’s compositional mastery and deft handling of choral effect that are well known from his many motets, six of which, including the sublime Op 30 Geistliches Lied, are also recorded here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eConcluding this new disc from Westminster Cathedral is the extraordinary double-choir Mass in E flat by Joseph Rheinberger, Leichtenstein’s most famous organ prodigy. This is music born of the polychoral Venitian tradition of Gabrieli and Monteverdi, nurtured on the harmonic milk of Bach and Mendelssohn, and finally offered up to the world as a miniature choral symphony that is uniquely Rheinberger’s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Choir of Westminster Cathedral, under Master of Music Martin Baker, takes on the challenges presented by these varied works with panache to create a disc that is sure to appeal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0067\/4660\/3571\/files\/official_TRACK_LISTING_WITH_WORLD.png?v=1663272176\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eMissa canonica[12'07] - Johannes Brahms (1833-1897)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eMatthew Martin (organ)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e1 Kyrie[3'50]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e2 Sanctus[2'36]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e3 Benedictus[1'53]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e4 Agnus Dei[3'48]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eTwo Motets Op 29[10'58] - Johannes Brahms (1833-1897)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e5 Es ist das Heil uns kommen her[4'27]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e6 Schaffe in mir, Gott, ein rein Herz[6'31]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e7 Geistliches Lied Op 30  Lass dich nur nichts nicht dauren mit trauren[5'02] - Johannes Brahms (1833-1897)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eMatthew Martin (organ)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e8 Ave Maria Op 12[3'56] - Johannes Brahms (1833-1897)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eMatthew Martin (organ)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eTwo Motets Op 74[14'20] - Johannes Brahms (1833-1897)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e9 No 2 Verse 1: O Heiland, reiss die Himmel auf[0'42]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e10 No 2 Verse 2: O Gott ein Tau vom Himmel giess[0'46]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e11 No 2 Verse 3: O Erd schlag aus, schlag aus o Erd[0'56]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e12 No 2 Verse 4: Hie leiden wir die grösste Not[1'22]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e13 No 2 Verse 5: Da wollen wir all danken dir[1'05]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e14 No 1 Movement 1: Warum ist das Licht gegeben?[5'26]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e15 No 1 Movement 2: Lasset uns unser Herz samt den Händen[0'56]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e16 No 1 Movement 3: Siehe, wir preisen selig, die erduldet haben[1'59]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e17 No 1 Movement 4: Mit Fried und Freud ich fahr dahin[1'08]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eMass for double choir in E flat 'Cantus Missae' Op 109[21'42] - Joseph Rheinberger (1839-1901)\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e18 Kyrie[3'18]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e19 Gloria[3'14]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e20 Credo[6'13]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e21 Sanctus[1'50]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e22 Benedictus[2'24]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e23 Agnus Dei[4'43]\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"HYPERION","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47028557512954,"sku":"CDA67559","price":4.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0067\/4660\/3571\/files\/034571175591.png?v=1736534449","url":"https:\/\/classicselectworld.com\/en-de\/products\/brahms-missa-canonica-rheinberger-mass-for-double-choir-baker-westminster-cathedral-choir","provider":"ClassicSelect World","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
