Mass in C major Messe in C by Ludwig van Beethoven 4-Part - Sheet Music

By Ludwig van Beethoven

With its tonal language of subjective avowal, the first of Beethoven’s two masses opens up new worlds of expression for the liturgical texts of the Mass which point towards the future. Not to be considered a preliminary work to the "Missa solemnis", it is an entirely independent work which set standards for the further development of Mass settings in the 19th century. Its newness, of which the composer himself was fully aware ("I do not speak gladly of my Mass, or of myself, but I do believe that I have treated the text in a manner in which only few have treated it."), paves a way to an hitherto unknown, contemporary avenue to faith which today is still current. Carus presents this important work of church music history in a new critical edition by the Beethoven expert Ernst Herttrich. Thanks to an arrangement by K. F. Müller (Carus 40.688/50), it is possible to perform the work in smaller settings.
