Beethoven Mass in C major, Op. 86 - I. Kyrie - Andante con mottoe assai vivace

[baysidemama]

Its the mass. And how many different composers have written musical compositions that were originally for tge church. So you will find many Kyries etc.

@NoBl3RS what do you mean by "if Beethoven is the original composer"? He most is certainly the only composer of this particular work.

[NoBl3RS]

@sstuddert

the version im looking for is different

[sstuddert]

@NoBl3RS what are you talking about, if he's the original composer of this or the piece of music in the link you sent me?

[NoBl3RS]

@sstuddert

the piece in the link

[sstuddert]

@NoBl3RS what makes you think Beethoven composed the piece in the link you sent?

[sstuddert]

@NoBl3RS I highly doubt that Beethoven composed the piece of music in the link you sent me.

@sstuddert Keep in mind that masses where extremely common compositions: a majority of composes wrote them. The names of the movements are often the same, so there are multiple versions of the same piece by different composers that sound completely different, but it's not like one composer copied the work of somebody else and made it to there own liking, the only used the same text. The music for each one is their own original composition. Beethoven definitely composed this version.

[sstuddert]

@robby35us well, that's exactly my point.

I was in a chorus that sang this piece when I was an undergrad. One of the experiences that has inspired me to continue singing this type of repertoire for the 20 years since then!

I'd love to have this done as part of an actual Mass again. Truly an example of Augustine's claim that the use of music multiplies one's prayers.

Magnificent !! I would expect nothing less from the London Philharmonic Orchestra. The sound quality of this recording is awesome too. Thanks for posting this so we can all be inspired.

Just heard this for the first time live two nights ago - absolutely breath-taking and inspiring. This Kyrie made me cry!

[boing3887]

the harmonies...wow

[pegasus1747]

This was one of " my best discoveries :::::-)" while living in Vienna, Austria; I had never heard it before while, in the States, nor have I since returning,

This wonderful mass is being performed nowadays more often. My favourite part of it is the GLORIA ending.

[sstuddert]

@greve you mean the "quoniam tu solus (6:31 in the Gloria)"? If so, I agree, it's the best part.

[greve]

@sstuddert Yes!

Makes me want to cry within the first minute.
