Conductor, Director and artistic supervisor Herbert von Karajan leads the Berliner Philharmoniker and the Wiener Singverein with the Missa Solemnis by Ludwig van Beethoven. This performance with a superb quartet of soloists - Anna Tomowa-Sintow, Ruza Baldani, Eric Tappy, Jose van Dam - is a live production from the Easter Festival in Salzburg in 1979.

The Missa Solemnis op 79 - one of the most important masses - is scored for an orchestra and organ, together with four solo singers and chorus and has a highly dramatic, symphonic style.

The Missa Solemnis was first performed in St.Petersburg in April 1824, under the musical supervision and with the financial support of Prince Nikolai Galitzin
The complexity of the fugues, the frequent counterpoint between the quartet of soloists, the choir and the different sections of the orchestra, and the sheer length of the piece - over an hour and a half - make it a huge challenge to perform.

" Karajan's view of the Missa Solemnis shows a remarkable consistency" - New Hi-Fi Sound.

"...powerful, moving, uplifting and one of the great masterpieces of Beethoven..." - New Hi-Fi Sound.
