Bach's spectacular B-minor Mass has obscured a number of shorter masterpieces of the same genre. In this first volume of the complete Bach Masses, The Washington Bach Consort explores the works which gained Bach the title of "Electoral Saxon and Royal Polish Court Compositeur" from the Catholic Court of Dresden. The Washington Bach Consort is an internationally renowned group which performs with period instruments. | | Acknowledgements: | Thank you to the following for submitting this recording and for your comments: | | Date First Submitted: | 03/21/2005 |
