Rikard Lindberg KarlssonAbout
The Mass in G minor for double choir and soloists by 150-year anniversary composer Ralph Vaughan Williams (1872-1958) is one of the largest a cappella choral masses composed in the 20th century. It was written in 1920–21, just after the First World War and after the first waves of Spanish flu. Two clear features can be discerned in Vaughan Williams’s compositional work after the war: firstly that he was immensely productive, and secondly that the works represent a quest for peace and harmony. With great expressive power and wonderful beauty of sound, five contemporary pieces by composer friends of the choir are presented on this recording.
