Missa Solemnis April 29 Review

REVIEW: Beethoven's Missa Solemnis Orpheus Choir, Vector Wellington Orchestra conducted by Marc Taddei with Emma Fraser, Bianca Andrew, Cameron Barclay, Kieran Rayner.

Reviewed: Lindis Taylor

Once again, after hearing a work commonly called a masterpiece, I found myself wondering why Beethoven’s great Mass in D (or Missa Solemnis) is not as well known and well loved as Bach’s B minor Mass or Mozart’s Requiem.
