“From the heart – may it go straight to the heart”. Ludwig van Beethoven worked for half a decade at his Missa Solemnis, and it’s infinitely more than just one of the mightiest and most ambitious Mass settings since Bach. The Missa Solemnis is the supreme spiritual vision of one of the greatest creative artists who ever lived: an intimate self-portrait of a human soul, profoundly beautiful and almost unbearably moving. This performance is a labour of love for Donald Runnicles, and he’s assembled a world-class team of soloists and the Edinburgh Festival Chorus in the full understanding that this is music that’s greater than it can ever be played.
