On March 9, the Gronau & Rheine Municipal Music Associations will perform a “Petite Messe Solennelle” at the Evangelical City Church in Gronau.\ud83c\udfb6<\/p>\n
The \u201cPetite Messe Solennelle,\u201d the \u201cLittle Solemn Mass\u201d for vocal solos, choir, and two pianos (one piano is sufficient) and harmonium, with its moving musical language, is a gem among liturgical works\u2014one of the most remarkable settings of the Catholic Mass text, both in terms of the circumstances of its creation and its musical form.<\/p>\n
Rossini composed the Mass in 1863 for the dedication of the private chapel of a couple of Counts in Paris who were friends of his. And there was no room there for large choral and orchestral works, such as were typical throughout Europe in the 19th century. <\/p>\n
With its overall scope, the Mass follows in the tradition of a \u201cMissa solemnis,\u201d yet the composer nevertheless labeled it \u201csmall.\u201d Rossini writes about it in an ironic dedication: \u201cDear God. Here it is, this poor little Mass. Have I really composed sacred music\u2014or is it cursed music after all? I was born for opera buffa (comic opera). So be praised, and grant me paradise.\u201d <\/p>\n
After all, the service lasts 90 minutes.<\/p>\n
