In this book George B. Stauffer explores the music and complex history of Bachs last and possibly greatest masterpiece. Stauffer examines the BMinor Mass in greater detail than ever before, demonstrating for the first time Bachs reliance on contemporary models from the Dresden Mass repertory and his brilliantly innovative methods of unifying his immense composition. Musicians, music scholars, students, and music lovers will find in this engagingly written book a wealth of information about Bachs extraordinary choral work.Stauffer surveys the roots of the Mass Ordinary text and its treatment in settings known to Bach. He looks at the events that led to the writing of the BMinor Mass and places the work within the context of the composers late style. In three deeply informed chapters, Stauffer considers the individual sections of the Massthe Kyrie and Gloria, the Credo, and the Sanctus and Agnus Dei. The book also traces the history of the work after Bachs death, addresses specific issues of performance practice, and investigates the qualities that give the BMinor Mass its universal appeal.
