Missa solemnis (Beethoven)
The Mass in D major, Op. 123 "Missa solemnis", was composed by Ludwig van Beethoven from 1819 to 1823. It was first performed on 7 April 1824 in St. Petersburg, Russia, under the auspices of Beethoven's patron Prince Nikolai Galitzin; an incomplete performance was given in Vienna on 7 May 1824, when the Kyrie, Credo, and Agnus Dei were conducted by the composer. It is generally considered one of the composer's supreme achievements and, along with Bach's Mass in B minor, one of the most significant Mass settings of the common practice period.
Despite critical recognition as one of Beethoven's great works from the height of his composing career, Missa solemnis has not achieved the same level of popular attention that many of his symphonies and sonatas have enjoyed. Written around the same time as his Ninth Symphony, it is Beethoven's second setting of the Mass, after his Mass in C, Op. 86.
The Mass is scored for 2 flutes; 2 oboes, 2 clarinets (in A, C, and B♭); 2 bassoons; contrabassoon; 4 horns (in D, E♭, B♭ basso, E, and G); 2 trumpets (D, B♭, and C); alto, tenor, and bass trombone; timpani; organ continuo; strings (violins I and II, violas, cellos, and basses); soprano, alto, tenor, and bass soloists; and mixed choir.

Missa solemnis
Missa solemnis is Latin for solemn mass, and is a genre of musical settings of the ordinary mass, which are festively scored and render the Latin text extensively, opposed to the more modest Missa brevis. In French, the genre is "Messe solennelle". The terms came into use in the classical period.
When "Missa solemnis" is used as a name, without referring to a composer, Beethoven's work is generally implied. Some of the greatest compositions in the genre have unique common names other than "Missa solemnis"—namely, Bach's Mass in B minor and Mozart's Great Mass in C minor. Some works are solemn settings in proportion and scoring, but are not called a "Missa solemnis", for example several late settings of both Haydn and Schubert, and three settings by Anton Bruckner.
Masses named "Missa solemnis" by well-known composers include:

Great Mass in C minor, K. 427
Great Mass in C minor (German: Große Messe in c-Moll), K. 427/417a, is the common name of the last musical setting of the mass by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (not counting his Requiem Mass left unfinished at his death). He composed it in Vienna in 1782 and 1783, when he was no longer a church musician of the Salzburg Cathedral. The large-scale work, a missa solemnis, is scored for two soprano soloists, a tenor and a bass, double chorus and large orchestra. It remained unfinished, missing large portions of the Credo and the complete Agnus Dei.
Composition and first performance
The work was composed during 1782/83. In a letter to his father Leopold dated 4 January 1783, Mozart mentioned a vow he had made to write a mass when he would bring his then fiancée Constanze as his wife to Salzburg; Constanze then sang the "Et incarnatus est" at its premiere.
The first performance took place in Salzburg on 26 October 1783. Mozart had moved to Vienna in 1781, but was paying a visit to his home town in the company of Constanze, who had not yet met his father or his sister (Nannerl).

Missa solemnis (Bruckner)
The Missa solemnis WAB 29, by Anton Bruckner is a setting of the mass ordinary for vocal soloists, chorus, orchestra and organ.
History
Following the death of Michael Arneth, Friedrich Mayer was appointed abbot of St. Florian. The Missa solemnis was premiered in the St. Florian Priory on September 14, 1854, the day of Mayer's elevation.
"Bruckner's Missa Solemnis is a musical summa of the first thirty years of his life."<ref name "MWV">Anton Bruckner Critical Complete Edition – Requiem, masses and Te Deum</ref> Robert Führer saw the score and suggested to Bruckner to study with Simon Sechter. Bruckner showed Sechter the mass and Sechter accepted him as a pupil. The Missa solemnis was the last major work Bruckner wrote before concluding his studies with Sechter, who did not allow his students free composition while studying with him.
Setting
The quartet of vocal soloists consists of a soprano, an alto, a tenor, and a bass, while the choir consists of sopranos, altos, tenors, and basses. The orchestra consists of 2 oboes, 2 bassoons, 2 horns, 2 trumpets, alto, tenor and bass trombones, timpani, and strings.<ref name "MWV"/>

Beethoven - Missa Solemnis Op. 123 (Score)
🎵 Please consider subscribing for more score videos! Together with Bach’s colossal B minor Mass, Beethoven’s Missa Solemnis is generally considered one of the most influential and astounding Mass settings ever written. It’s also famous for being the piece Beethoven is writing in his famous Joseph Karl Stieler portrait. Taking around four years to finish in its entirety, the Missa Solemnis was first performed in St. Petersburg in 1824 – in the same concert as his 9th Symphony, famous for its Ode to Joy finale, was also performed. In fact, there are some noticeable similarities, in that both are of similar length, in the same key, and are written for a huge orchestra with choir and four solo singers. 0:00:00 1.

The Frauenkirche (Church of Our Lady) with its high dome visible from afar is considered the landmark of the city of Dresden in Saxony. In the Second World War, this striking church was destroyed by bombs in February 1945 and existed for decades only as a ruin. From 1993 to 2005 it was rebuilt using the remaining rubble. Its reconstruction is a symbol of hope and reconciliation – and the magnificent church building with its unique blend of old and new bricks is intended to keep the memory of history alive.
A work as festive as it is grand was chosen for the reopening concert. The Missa solemnis by Ludwig van Beethoven (1770 - 1827). The ‘Solemn Mass’ is considered one of the composer’s most important works, and Beethoven himself even called it his greatest work on several occasions. The Mass for four soloists, choir, orchestra and orgue in D major, Op. 123 was composed between 1819 and 1823, after Beethoven had already studied in detail the Latin text of the Mass and its various settings by other composers. The Missa solemnis reflects Beethoven’s struggle with religion and has a clearly confessional character. The individual parts of the mass are divided into five major compositional sections, giving the ‘Great Mass’ an almost symphonic aspect. This famous piece of church music demands a great deal from the vocal soloists, the choir and the large orchestra.

Missa Solemnis - L. v. Beethoven (Complete) "Full Concert" The Missa solemnis in D Major, Op. 123 was composed by Ludwig van Beethoven from 1819-1823. It was first performed on April 7, 1824 in St. Petersburg, under the auspices of Beethoven's patron Prince Nikolai Galitzin; an incomplete performance was given in Vienna on 7 May 1824, when the Kyrie, Credo, and Agnus Dei were conducted by the composer. It is generally considered to be one of the composer's supreme achievements. Together with Bach's Mass in B Minor, it is the most significant mass setting of the common practice period.
Despite critical recognition as one of Beethoven's great works from the height of his composing career, Missa solemnis has not achieved the same level of popular attention that many of his symphonies and sonatas have enjoyed.[citation needed] Written around the same time as his ninth symphony, it is Beethoven's second setting of the mass, after his Mass in C, Op. 86.
The mass is scored for 2 flutes; 2 oboes, 2 clarinets (in A, C, and B♭); 2 bassoons; contrabassoon; 4 horns (in D, E♭, B♭ basso, E, and G); 2 trumpets (D, B♭, and C); alto, tenor, and bass trombone; timpani; organ continuo; strings (violins I and II, violas, cellos, and basses); soprano, alto, tenor, and bass soloists; and mixed choir.
Structure
Like most masses, Beethoven's Missa solemnis is in five movements:
Kyrie: Perhaps the most traditional of the mass movements, the Kyrie is in a traditional ABA' structure, with stately choral writing in the first movement section and more contrapuntal voice leading in the Christe, which also introduces the four vocal soloists.
Gloria: Quickly shifting textures and themes highlight each portion of the Gloria text, in a beginning to the movement that is almost encyclopedic in its exploration of 3/4 time. The movement ends with the first of the work's two massive fugues, on the text "In gloria Dei patris. Amen", leading into a recapitulation of the initial Gloria text and music.
Credo: One of the most remarkable movements to come from Beethoven's pen opens with a chord sequence that will be used again in the movement to effect modulations. The Credo, like the Gloria, is an often disorienting, mad rush through the text. The poignant modal harmonies for the "et incarnatus" yield to ever more expressive heights through the "crucifixus", and into a remarkable, a cappella setting of the "et resurrexit" that is over almost before it has begun. Most notable about the movement, though, is the closing fugue on "et vitam venturi" that includes one of the most difficult passages in the choral repertoire, when the subject returns at doubled tempo for a thrilling conclusion.
The form of the Credo is divided into four parts: (I) allegro ma non troppo through "descendit de coelis" in B-flat; (II) "Incarnatus est" through "Resurrexit" in D; (III) "Et ascendit" through the Credo recapitulation in F; (IV) Fugue and Coda "et vitam venturi saeculi, amen" in B-flat.
Sanctus: Up until the benedictus of the Sanctus, the Missa solemnis is of fairly normal classical proportions. But then, after an orchestral preludio, a solo violin enters in its highest range — representing the Holy Spirit descending to earth — and begins the Missa's most transcendently beautiful music, in a remarkably long extension of the text.
Agnus Dei: A setting of the plea "miserere nobis" ("have mercy on us") that begins with the men's voices alone yields, eventually, to a bright D-major prayer "dona nobis pacem" ("grant us peace") in a pastoral mode. After some fugal development, it is suddenly and dramatically interrupted by martial sounds (a convention in the 18th century, as in Haydn's Missa in tempore belli), but after repeated pleas of "miserere!", eventually recovers and brings itself to a stately conclusion.

There are two timeless versions of Beethoven's Missa Solemnis: the one you are listening to (Karajan 1975 & 1958: https://youtu.be/WUYeYsLMLus) right now, and the one by Otto Klemperer (https://youtu.be/aI0FhkCnLoc). You have to listen to Klemperer for the overall architecture, and to Karajan to hear the smallest details of the score (1975) and overall unity (1958).
Beethoven: Missa solemnis, Op. 123 / History. On June 4th 1819, the Archduke Rudolph of Austria was elected Archbishop of Olmütz in Moravia. His enthronement was due to take place in Cologne Cathedral on March 20th 1820. Beethoven at once determined to compose music for this solemn occasion. The Archduke Rudolph had been Beethoven's pupil for pianoforte tuition since 1804, when the boy was fifteen. In 1808, when Beethoven was invited to become Kapellmeister to the Court of Cassel, Rudolph and two other friends guaranteed him a salary if he would remain in Vienna. Rudolph's place in Beethoven's affections is sufficiently attested by the quality and grandeur of the works that Beethoven dedicated to him: the fourth and fifth piano concertos, the piano sonatas Les Adieux, Hammerklavier and Opus 111 in C minor, the Grosse Fuge, the Archduke Trio, the last of the violin sonatas, and the vocal score of Fidelio, besides this Mass in D. Rudolph, it may be added, was an extremely able pianist, capable of performing the keyboard music dedicated to him; for the piano concertos Beethoven also supplied him with the cadenzas which we usually hear today.
Anton Schindler, Beethoven's pupil declared that Beethoven started work on the Mass in D 'in the late autumn of 1818'. For the celebration in a great cathedral he chose the key of D major which has strong associations of dignity, brilliance and joy; it was the key of Beethoven's Ode to Joy, which had been on the stocks since 1817 and was to be completed soon after the Mass.
Beethoven made elaborate preparations for a task that he knew would summon his highest talents. He studied earlier settings of the text, particularly Palestrina's, for modal polyphony and for textual emphases in their music, and he had an accurate translation made of the Latin text of the Mass, so that no implications should escape him.
The first sketches for the Mass in D were made in a book started early in 1819. Beethoven was definitely hard at work on the Mass in the summer of 1819, when Schindler and his friend Horsalka visited the composer in Mödling, found the house in terrible disarray, and heard Beethoven howling and stamping at the piano as he worked on the great fugue Et vitam venturi from the Credo. As the summer wore on Beethoven began to doubt whether the work would be completed in time for the ceremony. He complained to Schindler that 'every movement as he carne to it took on much greater dimensions than had been originally planned', and we can infer that the difficulties affected not only the length of each movement, but the control of internal texture and harmonic transition, and the actual realization of the great ideas in Beethoven's head.

Together with Bach’s colossal B minor Mass, Beethoven’s Missa Solemnis is generally considered one of the most influential and astounding Mass settings ever written. It’s also famous for being the piece Beethoven is writing in his famous Joseph Karl Stieler portrait.
Taking around four years to finish in its entirety, the Missa Solemnis was first performed in St. Petersburg in 1824 – in the same concert as his 9th Symphony, famous for its Ode to Joy finale, was also performed. In fact, there are some noticeable similarities, in that both are of similar length, in the same key, and are written for a huge orchestra with choir and four solo singers.

Ludwig van Beethoven’s “Missa solemnis” is considered one of the composer's most important works, Beethoven himself described it as one of his finest. The Solemn Mass Op. 123, written between 1819 and 1823, reflects Beethoven’s struggle with religion and has a confessional character. The composer had previously studied the text of the Latin Mass extensively. It demands a great deal from the vocal soloists, the choir and the large orchestra.
The Concerto Köln ensemble is world-renowned for its historically authentic performances. Its members are known for using original instruments from Beethoven’s time – and this performance is no exception. While the group does not have a permanent conductor, they named Kent Nagano their “honorary conductor”, due to his deep appreciation and respect for historical performance.
Archduke Rudolf of Austria, a great patron and student of Beethoven’s, commissioned the master musician to compose a festive mass in honor of his appointment as archbishop. However, because he took over four years to compose it, Beethoven finished the piece much too late for the occasion. The mass was also far too long to be a standard liturgical mass. To this day, it is mainly performed in concert halls.
Despite the fact that it is usually performed in concert, Beethoven’s “Missa solemnis” is ultimately a sacred work. Cologne Cathedral with its majestic stained-glass windows and mighty gothic columns veiled in violet lighting served as the perfect backdrop for this concert.

A solemn mass with a symbolic character: The Frauenkirche in Dresden hosted its first public concert to mark its reopening on November 4, 2005. The program included Beethoven’s Missa solemnis, performed by the Staatskapelle Dresden and the Chorus of the Sächsische Staatsoper Dresden, conducted by Fabio Luisi. The soloists were Camilla Nylund, Birgit Remmert, Christian Elsner and René Pape.

The Frauenkirche (Church of Our Lady) with its high dome visible from afar is considered the landmark of the city of Dresden in Saxony. In the Second World War, this striking church was destroyed by bombs in February 1945 and existed for decades only as a ruin. From 1993 to 2005 it was rebuilt using the remaining rubble. Its reconstruction is a symbol of hope and reconciliation – and the magnificent church building with its unique blend of old and new bricks is intended to keep the memory of history alive.
A work as festive as it is grand was chosen for the reopening concert. The Missa solemnis by Ludwig van Beethoven (1770 - 1827). The ‘Solemn Mass’ is considered one of the composer’s most important works, and Beethoven himself even called it his greatest work on several occasions. The Mass for four soloists, choir, orchestra and orgue in D major, Op. 123 was composed between 1819 and 1823, after Beethoven had already studied in detail the Latin text of the Mass and its various settings by other composers. The Missa solemnis reflects Beethoven’s struggle with religion and has a clearly confessional character. The individual parts of the mass are divided into five major compositional sections, giving the ‘Great Mass’ an almost symphonic aspect. This famous piece of church music demands a great deal from the vocal soloists, the choir and the large orchestra.

Missa Solemnis - L. v. Beethoven (Complete) "Full Concert" The Missa solemnis in D Major, Op. 123 was composed by Ludwig van Beethoven from 1819-1823. It was first performed on April 7, 1824 in St. Petersburg, under the auspices of Beethoven's patron Prince Nikolai Galitzin; an incomplete performance was given in Vienna on 7 May 1824, when the Kyrie, Credo, and Agnus Dei were conducted by the composer. It is generally considered to be one of the composer's supreme achievements. Together with Bach's Mass in B Minor, it is the most significant mass setting of the common practice period.
Despite critical recognition as one of Beethoven's great works from the height of his composing career, Missa solemnis has not achieved the same level of popular attention that many of his symphonies and sonatas have enjoyed.[citation needed] Written around the same time as his ninth symphony, it is Beethoven's second setting of the mass, after his Mass in C, Op. 86.
The mass is scored for 2 flutes; 2 oboes, 2 clarinets (in A, C, and B♭); 2 bassoons; contrabassoon; 4 horns (in D, E♭, B♭ basso, E, and G); 2 trumpets (D, B♭, and C); alto, tenor, and bass trombone; timpani; organ continuo; strings (violins I and II, violas, cellos, and basses); soprano, alto, tenor, and bass soloists; and mixed choir.
Structure
Like most masses, Beethoven's Missa solemnis is in five movements:
Kyrie: Perhaps the most traditional of the mass movements, the Kyrie is in a traditional ABA' structure, with stately choral writing in the first movement section and more contrapuntal voice leading in the Christe, which also introduces the four vocal soloists.
Gloria: Quickly shifting textures and themes highlight each portion of the Gloria text, in a beginning to the movement that is almost encyclopedic in its exploration of 3/4 time. The movement ends with the first of the work's two massive fugues, on the text "In gloria Dei patris. Amen", leading into a recapitulation of the initial Gloria text and music.
Credo: One of the most remarkable movements to come from Beethoven's pen opens with a chord sequence that will be used again in the movement to effect modulations. The Credo, like the Gloria, is an often disorienting, mad rush through the text. The poignant modal harmonies for the "et incarnatus" yield to ever more expressive heights through the "crucifixus", and into a remarkable, a cappella setting of the "et resurrexit" that is over almost before it has begun. Most notable about the movement, though, is the closing fugue on "et vitam venturi" that includes one of the most difficult passages in the choral repertoire, when the subject returns at doubled tempo for a thrilling conclusion.
The form of the Credo is divided into four parts: (I) allegro ma non troppo through "descendit de coelis" in B-flat; (II) "Incarnatus est" through "Resurrexit" in D; (III) "Et ascendit" through the Credo recapitulation in F; (IV) Fugue and Coda "et vitam venturi saeculi, amen" in B-flat.
Sanctus: Up until the benedictus of the Sanctus, the Missa solemnis is of fairly normal classical proportions. But then, after an orchestral preludio, a solo violin enters in its highest range — representing the Holy Spirit descending to earth — and begins the Missa's most transcendently beautiful music, in a remarkably long extension of the text.
Agnus Dei: A setting of the plea "miserere nobis" ("have mercy on us") that begins with the men's voices alone yields, eventually, to a bright D-major prayer "dona nobis pacem" ("grant us peace") in a pastoral mode. After some fugal development, it is suddenly and dramatically interrupted by martial sounds (a convention in the 18th century, as in Haydn's Missa in tempore belli), but after repeated pleas of "miserere!", eventually recovers and brings itself to a stately conclusion.

There are two timeless versions of Beethoven's Missa Solemnis: the one you are listening to (Karajan 1975 & 1958: https://youtu.be/WUYeYsLMLus) right now, and the one by Otto Klemperer (https://youtu.be/aI0FhkCnLoc). You have to listen to Klemperer for the overall architecture, and to Karajan to hear the smallest details of the score (1975) and overall unity (1958).
Beethoven: Missa solemnis, Op. 123 / History. On June 4th 1819, the Archduke Rudolph of Austria was elected Archbishop of Olmütz in Moravia. His enthronement was due to take place in Cologne Cathedral on March 20th 1820. Beethoven at once determined to compose music for this solemn occasion. The Archduke Rudolph had been Beethoven's pupil for pianoforte tuition since 1804, when the boy was fifteen. In 1808, when Beethoven was invited to become Kapellmeister to the Court of Cassel, Rudolph and two other friends guaranteed him a salary if he would remain in Vienna. Rudolph's place in Beethoven's affections is sufficiently attested by the quality and grandeur of the works that Beethoven dedicated to him: the fourth and fifth piano concertos, the piano sonatas Les Adieux, Hammerklavier and Opus 111 in C minor, the Grosse Fuge, the Archduke Trio, the last of the violin sonatas, and the vocal score of Fidelio, besides this Mass in D. Rudolph, it may be added, was an extremely able pianist, capable of performing the keyboard music dedicated to him; for the piano concertos Beethoven also supplied him with the cadenzas which we usually hear today.
Anton Schindler, Beethoven's pupil declared that Beethoven started work on the Mass in D 'in the late autumn of 1818'. For the celebration in a great cathedral he chose the key of D major which has strong associations of dignity, brilliance and joy; it was the key of Beethoven's Ode to Joy, which had been on the stocks since 1817 and was to be completed soon after the Mass.
Beethoven made elaborate preparations for a task that he knew would summon his highest talents. He studied earlier settings of the text, particularly Palestrina's, for modal polyphony and for textual emphases in their music, and he had an accurate translation made of the Latin text of the Mass, so that no implications should escape him.
The first sketches for the Mass in D were made in a book started early in 1819. Beethoven was definitely hard at work on the Mass in the summer of 1819, when Schindler and his friend Horsalka visited the composer in Mödling, found the house in terrible disarray, and heard Beethoven howling and stamping at the piano as he worked on the great fugue Et vitam venturi from the Credo. As the summer wore on Beethoven began to doubt whether the work would be completed in time for the ceremony. He complained to Schindler that 'every movement as he carne to it took on much greater dimensions than had been originally planned', and we can infer that the difficulties affected not only the length of each movement, but the control of internal texture and harmonic transition, and the actual realization of the great ideas in Beethoven's head.

Together with Bach’s colossal B minor Mass, Beethoven’s Missa Solemnis is generally considered one of the most influential and astounding Mass settings ever written. It’s also famous for being the piece Beethoven is writing in his famous Joseph Karl Stieler portrait.
Taking around four years to finish in its entirety, the Missa Solemnis was first performed in St. Petersburg in 1824 – in the same concert as his 9th Symphony, famous for its Ode to Joy finale, was also performed. In fact, there are some noticeable similarities, in that both are of similar length, in the same key, and are written for a huge orchestra with choir and four solo singers.

Ludwig van Beethoven’s “Missa solemnis” is considered one of the composer's most important works, Beethoven himself described it as one of his finest. The Solemn Mass Op. 123, written between 1819 and 1823, reflects Beethoven’s struggle with religion and has a confessional character. The composer had previously studied the text of the Latin Mass extensively. It demands a great deal from the vocal soloists, the choir and the large orchestra.
The Concerto Köln ensemble is world-renowned for its historically authentic performances. Its members are known for using original instruments from Beethoven’s time – and this performance is no exception. While the group does not have a permanent conductor, they named Kent Nagano their “honorary conductor”, due to his deep appreciation and respect for historical performance.
Archduke Rudolf of Austria, a great patron and student of Beethoven’s, commissioned the master musician to compose a festive mass in honor of his appointment as archbishop. However, because he took over four years to compose it, Beethoven finished the piece much too late for the occasion. The mass was also far too long to be a standard liturgical mass. To this day, it is mainly performed in concert halls.
Despite the fact that it is usually performed in concert, Beethoven’s “Missa solemnis” is ultimately a sacred work. Cologne Cathedral with its majestic stained-glass windows and mighty gothic columns veiled in violet lighting served as the perfect backdrop for this concert.

Missa solemnis (Beethoven)
The Mass in D major, Op. 123 "Missa solemnis", was composed by Ludwig van Beethoven from 1819 to 1823. It was first performed on 7 April 1824 in St. Petersburg, Russia, under the auspices of Beethoven's patron Prince Nikolai Galitzin; an incomplete performance was given in Vienna on 7 May 1824, when the Kyrie, Credo, and Agnus Dei were conducted by the composer. It is generally considered one of the composer's supreme achievements and, along with Bach's Mass in B minor, one of the most significant Mass settings of the common practice period.
Despite critical recognition as one of Beethoven's great works from the height of his composing career, Missa solemnis has not achieved the same level of popular attention that many of his symphonies and sonatas have enjoyed. Written around the same time as his Ninth Symphony, it is Beethoven's second setting of the Mass, after his Mass in C, Op. 86.
The Mass is scored for 2 flutes; 2 oboes, 2 clarinets (in A, C, and B♭); 2 bassoons; contrabassoon; 4 horns (in D, E♭, B♭ basso, E, and G); 2 trumpets (D, B♭, and C); alto, tenor, and bass trombone; timpani; organ continuo; strings (violins I and II, violas, cellos, and basses); soprano, alto, tenor, and bass soloists; and mixed choir.
