Mozart’s Mass in C major – known as the "Coronation Mass" for no obvious reason – is one of the most popular and most frequently-performed works of its kind. Although Mozart had to keep the setting short, in line with the Prince Bishop’s requirements, it is astonishingly varied. A great deal is required of the choir, both harmonically and through the somewhat unexpected dynamic twists and turns. A good rapport between chorus and choral director is necessary here – don’t have your nose in your copy!

The Carus Choir Coach offers choir singers the unique opportunity to study and learn their own, individual choral parts within the context of the sound of the entire choir and orchestra. For every vocal range a separate Audio CD or MP3 and download containing each choir part is available. The Carus Choir Coach is based on recorded interpretations by renowned artists who have performed the work from carefully prepared Carus Urtext editions. Each choir part is presented in three different versions:

Original recording
Coach: each part is accompanied by the piano, with the original recording sounding in the background
Coach in slow mode: the tempo of the coach slows down to 70% of the original version – through this reduction passages can be learned more effectively.

Performers: Donna Brown (soprano), Claudia Schubert (alto), Marcus Ullmann (tenore), Klaus Häger (basso) – Gächinger Kantorei & Bach-Collegium Stuttgart – Helmuth Rilling.
