Mass in F minor
JANET PRICE (soprano)
JEAN ALLISTER (contralto) WILFRED BROWN (tenor) JOHN NOBLE (baritone)
CARDIFF AELWYD CHOIR
Chorus-Master, Alun Guy
BBC WELSH ORCHESTRA Leader, Colin Staveley
Conductor, JOHN CAREWE
The three Masses which Bruckner wrote between 1864 and 1868 contain the clues to his later and greater symphonies and even have thematic affinity with the earlier ones. The relationship works two ways. In the more majestic expanses of the symphonies it is not difficult to imagine Bruckner seated at his beloved organ; the music evokes visions of stained-glass windows and mighty cathedral roofs. And in the Mass in F minor the hand of the natural symphonist is confident and strong, with a quickly emerging grasp of architecture and form. KENNETH LOVELAND
