A CLASSICAL CELEBRATI0N

Schubert wrote his Mass in G Major within the space of five days, March 2-7, 1815. This is the shortest and simplest of his seven masses, intended for performance in his parish church of Lichenthal. The chamber instrumentation for strings is beautifully transparent. The Mass setting is restrained and conservative, reminiscent of Mozart or early Beethoven. It contains those portions of the Ordinary of the Mass that are most frequently set to music - Kyrie, Gloria, Credo, Sanctus, and Angus Dei - in the original Latin.

Norman's Luboff's African Mass, for chorus, soloists, and tuned drums, is inspired by the rhythmic ostinatos of African music. While the melodies are simple, the repetition of independent rhythmic lines creates a sense of motion and drama. The result is a moving and dramatic setting for the traditional Mass text
