Description:
The orchestral part set includes:
3 First Violins
3 Second Violins
1 Cello
1 Double Bass
1 Organ
A delightful rediscovery of Upper Austrian church music: For over 150 years, Carl Nefischer’s Missa in E-flat major lay hidden in the music archive of the Mauthausen parish choir. Now the work is being published for the first time in a modern edition. With its festive musical language, catchy melodies, and pastoral character, it has the potential to take a permanent place in the Christmas church music repertoire.
Nefischer, a longtime choir director in Mauthausen and a personal acquaintance of Anton Bruckner, stands firmly in the tradition of the church music of Joseph and Michael Haydn. The Mass is composed for mixed choir and small orchestra, but can be performed just as effectively with organ alone.
A worthwhile addition for choirs looking to discover a work for the Christmas season that is both rich in sound and rarely performed.
