Description:
Janacek's Latin Mass (1907-1908) gives the impression of a brilliant sketch rather than a finished work due to its concise compositional style; the unusual brevity of the Agnus Dei is particularly striking. The work captivates through its specific melody and metro rhythm, developed entirely in Janacek's well-known diction, through the typical use of pauses for expressive purposes, through its original heterophony, which here replaces the traditional polyphony, and through the vividly conducted instrumental part.
