Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

Little known today outside of music history books, Johann Baptist Vanhal (1739-1813) was an important and influential figure--not least for his participation in a string quartet which also included Haydn and Mozart! His symphonies and quartets having begun to attract renewed interest; this disc offers two out of around 50 surviving Mass settings. The Missa Pastoralis is a delightful example of the rustic version of the genre especially popular in Bohemia at the time. The Missa Solemnis features the organ part common to more traditional Masses, but the symphonic treatment of the text and often elaborate orchestral writing anticipate the magnificent series of Masses composed by Haydn at the turn of the 19th century, and beyond that the similarly titled Mass in D major by Beethoven. Uwe Grodd gets the balance right between the intimate and imposing aspects of Vanhal's music, and the New-Zealand-based TOWER Voices are expressively alert and attentive. Allan Bradley prepared the performing editions and contributes a booket-note valuable for its historical overview. Inventive and personable music well worth getting to know. --Richard Whitehouse

5.0 out of 5 stars Johann Vanhal Masses, 20 Dec 2002
By A Customer
I discovered Vanhal's Music on an Air New Zealand flight from Cairns to Auckland last year and was thoroughly knocked out by it. On the Audio programme was Vanhal's Missa Solemnis and I sat entranced listening to this music. It certainly made the 4 hour flight most enjoyable. The music is a delight and performed so brilliantly by the Arcadia Ensemble, the Tower Voices, the conductor Uwe Grodd and the delightful soloists Haines and Stoddart. This was such a voyage of musical discovery. When I returned to the UK I just had to search for the CD and then I discovered Missa Pastoralis as well. I come from a background of Verdi's Requiem, Beethoven's Missa Solemnis and Orff's Carmina Burana but this CD is a must for all who enjoy Choral music because this is of such high quality. Congratulations to Naxos and thank you Air New Zealand for introducing me to such a memorable experience

4.0 out of 5 stars Pleasant music but no more than that, 4 Jul 2008
By Aquinas "summa" (celestial heights, UK) - See all my reviews
Listen to Haydn's last six masses and then turn to this. Simply no comparison, Haydn is the master of this form and Vanhal is a mere student.
