Come his last mass to be written in Salzburg, Mozart had an ulterior purpose: to annoy the Prince-Archbishop. Einstein highlights the Gloria. It features an extended "Amen". Its prolongation was designed to inflame the cleric who was no fan of florid church-music. Mention should also be made of the Kyrie with its droll interjections - penitential this ain't. The motif that Mozart uses to unify the Credo is a pale imitation of its counterpart in the Coronation Mass. The Salzburger is back to best form with the fugal Benedictus in A Minor; similarly, he later cannibalised the Agnus Dei when he came to write Figaro. Two other works feature on this disc. Note-spinning predominates in the Litany, K 125; it's sole redeeming feature is the high-spirited Kyrie which only Mozart could have written.
Harnoncourt is superlative. The only way to perform the Missa Solemnis is to treat it like a masterpiece: that's his approach. This is the best performance known to me. In its decisiveness and grandeur, it's more convincing than the droopy alternative under Cleobury. Barbara Bonney is ravishing in the Agnus Dei. All parties do what they can to animate K 125 & K 276. The CMW and choir perform with panache. The recording is excellent.–Bernard Michael O'Hanlon
