Bruckner’s mighty "Mass in F minor" is one of the composer’s most important works, and indeed one of the major pieces of 19th century choral music. In unique fashion, the composer manages to illuminate the religious text through his music. At the same time, he creates passages of extreme emotion, which in fact led to disagreements with the musicians in the run up to the originally planned premiere in November 1868. In subsequent years, however, the work gained in popularity. Today it is still a highly appealing challenge for well-trained choirs. With this version by the experienced arranger and orchestral musician Joachim Linckelmann, the Mass can now be performed by smaller groups. Created for soloists, choir and chamber orchestra, he reduces the winds from the original 15 to just seven. The string parts are identical to the original but can now also be reduced in number. The vocal parts (solos and choir) are entirely unaltered, so that the singers can use the vocal scores and choral scores of the Carus Urtext edition. / - Large-scale work can also be performed by smaller choirs - 15 winds in the original version now reduced to seven - Singers can still use the original vocal/choral scores - carus plus: The work (original version) is available in our app carus music, the Choir Coach / Original version: Soli SATB, Coro SSAATTBB, 2 Fl, 2 Ob, 2 Clt, 2 Fg, 2 Cor, 2 Tr, 3 Trb, Timp, 2 Vl, Va, Vc, Cb; Arrangement for chamber orchestra: Soli SATB, Coro SSAATTBB, Fl, Ob, Clt, Fg, Cor, Tr, Trb, Timp, 2 Vl, Va, Vc, Cb
