A wonderful performance of this Mozart masterpiece. For me, Julie Fuchs´ rendition of Et Incarnatus est is the highlight, Her command of the sotto voce is amazing.
I start rehearsing this marvelous work on January 24, 2022 with our concert in April! What a blessing to have the privilege of being part of this masterpiece.
My sincerest thanks to all those involved in this magnificent performance: the soloists Julie Fuchs, Ann Hallenberg, Benjamin Hulett, Markus Werba; the conductor Laurence Equilbey; and the members of the Orchestra Insula and the Choir Accentus. This is by far the greatest rendition of Mozart's Great Mass in C minor I have had the delight of listening to!
I've been listening to this all day long. Whenever someone tries to get me to take my headphones out, I literally hiss at them like a very mean cat. That is how miraculous this music is.
the joy and dedication of every one on that stage is overwhelming !! I am in tears most of the performance.I never heard a more moving performance of this glorious music !
Потрясающее своим несказанным совершенством исполнение Великой музыки Гениального Моцарта. В этом исполнении, так как и в самой музыке, все необычайно гармонично, строго и стройно. Необычайное, величайшее, непостижимое таинство искусства Моцарта, донесенное исполнителями до благодарного слушателя, поражает меня необычайно, и вселяет некоторые надежды на светлое будущее человечества. А впрочем, на все воля Провидения...😮❤.
En lisant les commentaires j'apprends que l'orchestre est dirigé par Laurence Equilbey, remarquable. Depuis la version de Karl Richter je n'avais jusqu'alors été convaincue par les grands noms de la direction d'orchestre. Aujourd'hui j'applaudis cette superbe interprétation avec des solistes enthousiasmants, un très beau coeur et un orchestre dirigé de main de Maitre.
No one mentions anything about the duet or trio. Some of my favorite moments 18:40 - 18:46 , 28:19 - 28:30 There's something so desperate and plaintive in them both. Never fails to move me.
A third and a final comment from me on this great performance --- the lady conductor is, in my view, among the greatest; she is a tremendous source of strength and feelings, a vital binding force bringing this heavenly music to its ultimate perfection. I am truly grateful. Thank you.
agreed! Ann Hallenberg sings effortlessly here, and every pitch, every note is beautifully and artfully executed. This is an extraordinarily good performance.
Perfection dans l'interprétation et dans la direction. Émotion, maîtrise, musicalité, tout y est. La musique de Mozart est légère, céleste, et donne un avant goût du paradis avec cette interprétation.
The three ladies, the two singers and the conductor, are exceptionally gifted, beautiful, and very outstanding. The orchestra and chorus are enchanting . Overall a superb performance -- does credit to the genius of Mozart.
It is a thrill and an honour to hear and see Julie Fuchs on stage. Quite obviously, she loves singing and her performance brings a tear to my eye. The beauty of Et Incarnatus Est (beginning at 37:28) gives me chills.
Да, это настоящие потрясающие голоса, уровень мастерства солисток почти запредельно высок, ведь это настоящее бельканто без всяких скидок, не просто свинячий ор, как это бывает ещё и к сожалению, довольно часто, особенно с исполнителями, не прошедшими полноценную, строжайшую школу прекрасного пения❤.
Julie Fuchs, such a beautiful lady ... The last soprano who touched me this much with the Christe Eleison solo part is Barbara Bonney under Sir Eliott Gardiner ...
+Raymond Deane Correct. However professor Levin has restored an astonishing part of it using recently found overflow scores, though there are still blank spaces.
Wow!!! Truly beautiful and wonderful performance. The vocal quality, instrumental detail, nuance and style - all wonderful. Brava to the conductor. The joy in the ensemble’s faces is not usual and must surely stem from leadership. The best performance of this work imo. Really fine from all.
Я усматриваю в Вашем утверждении некоторую, довольно существенную логическую ошибку, основанную на прямом отождествлении личности Моцарта с его гениальными творениями. Ведь для всех, кто хотя бы немного погрузился в тему, должен все таки отчётливо понимать, что Моцарт в жизни совсем не бал душкой, но типом довольно вредным и едким, и любил порою откровенно поиздеваться над людьми с которыми его сводила жизнь. Известно, кроме того, что он часто использовал в своей речи откровенно фекальный юмор. И вот я уверяю Вас, что если бы вы встретились с этим интересным персонажем в реальной жизни, то ещё совсем не факт, что у вас бы после некоторого неприятного опыта общения с ним, не возникло бы настоятельно желания просто начистить наглецу морду. Надо отчётливо понимать, то лишь музыка Моцарта божественно красива, и способна быть утешителем вашей душевной скорби, но увы сам ее автор, не то что не утешил бы Вас, но вполне вероятно мог бы вызвать откровенное разочарование, и глубокую личную неприязнь. Ситуация эта довольно типична. Совершенство художественного произведения, как правило совсем не равно уровню духовного совершенства его автора. Для примера можно вспомнить другого гения музыки Вагнера. Ведь довольно широко известно, что по своим взглядам он был очень близок к откровенным нацистам, и антисемитам, хотя в его музыке нет на это досадное уродство его сознания ни одного мало-мальски внятного намека😮😮😮.
Not only that You can suffer the greatest sorrow, the greatest sadness in the most absolute and overwhelming loneliness or the most exultant and splendid joy and optimism in the deepest, purest and simplest perfection of the beauty of their music
@@yurastoyan5973Mozart reserved the beauty and the perfection to his music, when we are birn with such a gift we don't need to please the aristocratic gallery.
This entire performance gives one goose bump after another. The trombone and french horn-work in Cum Sanctu Spiritu is..... WOW! I am really appreciative for this upload. Thank you. BRIAN
Soulful and serene and intense! What a truly marvelous performance - Mozart would love it if he were here. Laurence has complete control of this complex composition and it's truly an act of pure beauty!
This is truly a marathon of endurance for the hardcore listener. The joy being not at the finish-line but with every step and note. The Bach influence is a delightfully noticeable.
Exemplary performance and really enjoyed the "traditional" instruments. The players all seemed to really enjoy performing this wonderful piece and the conductor was wonderful
Toujours merveilleux. Je viens de l'écouter pour la troisième fois. Sublime "qui tollis" plein d'intensité dramatique, qui fait sentir le mystère de la rédemption.
While many comment on a "classy" performance, nobody seems to notice that this is a mass-set to music, of course, but still a mass-and one does not clap after a liturgical performance. I suggest people watch Bernstein's version with just the bells sounding at the end and the audience in solemn silence, or Karajan's performance of Mozart's "Coronation" mass in C Major, K.317 with Pope John Paul II presiding and carrying out the rite with Karajan transfixed at the end as the C Major chord vanishes. Now that is class. (I should emphasize that I am atheist). Having said that, this is a very good and at times excellent musical performance.
I am unsure wheter this could be considered a liturgical performace. Altough it is a mass set to music I believe that unless the rites are performed it shouldn't properly classifie as a liturgical performace and therefore it would be ok to clap. Tough if you think not please ahoq me, for I speak on mostly an assumption.
Indeed, after checking with my violin teacher who plays at an orchestra when those masses are performed by orchestras and the rituals aren't performed you are supposed to clap as any performace by an orchestra, it is not a liturgical performace.
Sampy Khe Thank you, Sampy Khe! Matheus VIII and his teacher are both mistaken. However, I should have specified that what I said pertains to performances in churches.
That was a truly delightful performance with terrific fidelity in all aspects of the piece. The Credo to this work (33:50) is so noble and uplifting. Great stuff!
Man merkt eindeutig dass sie bei Harnoncourt gelernt hat. Diese Energie. Auch der große Meister hatte diese pure Energie, egal ob bei Bach oder Mozart. Viele Mozart und Bach Einspielungen berühmter Dirigenten klingen für mich wie eine einzige sich dahinziehende Leier. Ohne Dynamik. Aber bei Harnoncourt gabs immer Bewegung, frischen Wind. Den höre ich auch hier.
ricordo molto bene la prima volta che ascoltai la messa k427 in do m di Mozart. fu un'enorme emozione che rinnova sempre ad ogni ascolto. per dirla alla forman... ecco la vera voce di dio!
Great the expertise of Lawrence Equilbey, impressive the performance of individual singers, all the time under her supervision, and the effective coordination of the choir. Synchronization all the time with the orchestra. Eloquent her body language, it is a kind of embodiment with the piece.
Puedes sufrir la pena más grande, la mayor tristeza en la más absoluta y agobiante soledad o la alegría y optimismo más exultantes y esplendidos en la mas profunda, pura y simple perfeccion de la belleza de su música .
La música de Mozart empieza a sonar y se inunda una atmósfera tal que suena todos los acordes de la vida, uno se siente tan lleno y elevado, que piensa que no puede ser algo terrenal. Que es algo del cielo. Y realmente lo es...
Other than the perfection of the Soprano who sang this music in the movie Amadeus, the delicacy of this Soprano's phrasing, her carefully placed trills, and turns are spot on, and perfect! And when she sings the Kyrie, starting at 2:51 to 5:55....the pureness and absolute beauty of it...it's moving evidence that G-d really spoke through Mozart.
Thank you for sharing this - it is wonderful. Mozart perfectly expressed the right emotions for the message of this music. At the beginning, the weight of the entire world is on your shoulders... and you are crying out to God for forgiveness... not just mercy. I don't need a movie to tell me that music like this, and the ability to create it, are a gift from Him. That is my belief.
Just watched and listened to this performance again. Extraordinarily convincing. Most impressed with Equilbey!! I'm about to embark on writing program notes for this work, and it was this performance I chose to hear as I took listening notes to myself. Again I'm struck with the need to thank Baron von Swieten!! The things past and future come together here! The slow introduction before the chorus sings the first Kyrie, just as in the Bach H-moll; the dotted Qui tollis ever so like Handel's Surely he hath born our griefs are from the past von Swieten showed Mozart (though I doubt that he saw the H-moll). And then the "Altissimus" is a foretaste of the Don Giovanni ensemble writing 100 K numbers later. Well, bravi all 'round!!
This is a breathtaking flight to heaven, an amazing jettison beyond light's speed. Laurence, have coffee with me, anywhere, any time. Tell me what you see in the score as you read it.
A wonderful performance of this Mozart masterpiece. For me, Julie Fuchs´ rendition of Et Incarnatus est is the highlight, Her command of the sotto voce is amazing.
Perhaps the greatest piece of sacred music ever written.
Bach's passions and oratorios from Haydn and Händel much more significant
I start rehearsing this marvelous work on January 24, 2022 with our concert in April! What a blessing to have the privilege of being part of this masterpiece.
My sincerest thanks to all those involved in this magnificent performance: the soloists Julie Fuchs, Ann Hallenberg, Benjamin Hulett, Markus Werba; the conductor Laurence Equilbey; and the members of the Orchestra Insula and the Choir Accentus.

Le duo au "domine deus rex calestis" est sublime. J'ai l'impression que le ciel s'ouvre et que les anges parlent.
Julie Fuchs... The peace itself when singing Et incarnatus. Beautiful singing, brava!
That is the best part of this master work of Mozart, and it is indeed performed to perfection.
Meanwhile, you're beautiful, Catalina.
👏👏
the joy and dedication of every one on that stage is overwhelming !! I am in tears most of the performance.I never heard a more moving performance of this glorious music !
This chorus is out of this world
The solemnity and comfort of this chorus are unrivaled, and outclassing
This Kyrie is among the most beautiful pieces Mozart, and hence in music history, has ever written! Thank you so much W. A. Mozart.
Heaven!
rafaelsantosx
and the Credo
that's very kind of you
"Laudamus te" is my favorite. Great interpretation of the love of God.

I have never seen a happier ensemble than this. Their energy is so joyful. Then the music.
Of the greatest and most flawless performances I have ever heard of this work.
senza parole....lacrime in gola
This is a beautiful performance, from a Great Master, brought through a Concert Master and Symphony and Chorus, to my hungry spirit. Thanks
A third and a final comment from me on this great performance --- the lady conductor is, in my view, among the greatest; she is a tremendous source of strength and feelings, a vital binding force bringing this heavenly music to its ultimate perfection. I am truly grateful. Thank you.
Who is the lady conductor? I would like to find more recordings with her conducting.
And for one thing to say.......Ann Hallenberg "Laudamus Te..." Heaven!!!!
agreed! Ann Hallenberg sings effortlessly here, and every pitch, every note is beautifully and artfully executed. This is an extraordinarily good performance.
Very moving, Mozart truly had a direct line to God. I picture hearing this music when I enter heaven.
If the genius of the creator of the universe was ever expressed in mortal form, it was through Mozart.
Se for para o céu, não?
God speaks through the genius of Mozart! "Laudamus te" brings tears to you eyes. The Great Mass, unfinished!!
Best performance I have ever heard of this sublime and heavenly masterpiece.Thanks to all.
Celestial, simply celestial.

From 37:20, the performance of Ms Julia Fuchs is perhaps unequaled in its beauty and elegance.
There is a subtle albeit important difference between "Fucks" and "Fuchs".

Sorry for the error. Your own insinuation is regrettable.
George H It would be appreciated, though, if you would correct the misspelling. Only you can.
redbrian3655
OK. Done. Sorry again for the error.
George H Many many thanks
Julie Fuchs, such a beautiful lady ... The last soprano who touched me this much with the Christe Eleison solo part is Barbara Bonney under Sir Eliott Gardiner ...
For me, an even greater work than the Requiem.
I would equal them... just too bad he didn't finish them
+Raymond Deane Considering Requiem was not finished by Mozart, he stoped on the half.
+rafaelsantosx He wrote more than half. But in fact the C minor Mass is also unfinished.
+Raymond Deane Correct. However professor Levin has restored an astonishing part of it using recently found overflow scores, though there are still blank spaces.
Raymond Deane
I didn't know that. I'm more fan of requiem because its more dramatic and intense.
The marvelous Mozart work is on our 2022 concert schedule. I can hardly weight!
mozart was a miracle
Magnificent.....Pure Mozart and elegant!
I will be singing this July 10, 2017 with the UMS Choral Union in Ann Arbor, MIchigan USA!
Martin Slabey Best wishes on your performance
It was wonderful. We had 255 choristers, being led by the UMS Choral Union Director, Scott Hanonian.
Fantastik performance. Real Mozart sound, and a conductor in control and espreses of all nuances
Who is the conductor? I would love to find other videos of her.
Wow!!! Truly beautiful and wonderful performance. The vocal quality, instrumental detail, nuance and style - all wonderful. Brava to the conductor. The joy in the ensemble’s faces is not usual and must surely stem from leadership. The best performance of this work imo. Really fine from all.
you can go to Mozart with a broken heart, and he will lift your burdens, and not judge you.
steady now!...

What a wonderful all round performance of a beautiful piece. Very uplifting!
This is the best performance of the great mass in c minor
Thrilling, beautifully disciplined performance.

One the most Beautiful Mass from Mozart!!! Great performance!!! Thank you!!!

Hervorragende Aufführung
The laudamus te is typical Mozart magic ;)
not that it's a bad aria, it just happens to be the least interesting part of this piece
Oh como me gusta escuchar a mozart en las mañanas, siento que mi espíritu descansa en los jardines del monte olimpo.
Man merkt eindeutig dass sie bei Harnoncourt gelernt hat. Diese Energie. Auch der große Meister hatte diese pure Energie, egal ob bei Bach oder Mozart. Viele Mozart und Bach Einspielungen berühmter Dirigenten klingen für mich wie eine einzige sich dahinziehende Leier. Ohne Dynamik. Aber bei Harnoncourt gabs immer Bewegung, frischen Wind. Den höre ich auch hier.
"I love the way Mozart wrote the solo part for Constanze, rising Phoenix-like from the mass" - David Hazlewood on Kyrie.
I love the music of Mozart. Amo la música de Mozart. Ich liebe die Music von Mozart. Mozart, je t´aime!
Some artists focus on music, Some on lyrics so I focused on both
I'm Truly Amazing!
Amadeus Mozart yes you did!
Excellente interprétation, pleine de grâce et de vigueur, combinant charme et rigueur. Bravo à Laurence Equilbey, à Julie Fuchs et à tout le chœur.
Ann Hallenberg also.
Julie, it is just amazing. Both the singing & you.
Julie Fuchs is my new passion

Beauty "Laudamus te" I ever heard afloat on the string wave with perfect rhythm.
Слушал не отрываясь, забыв обо всем. Лоренс молодчага!
Puedes sufrir la pena más grande, la mayor tristeza en la más absoluta y agobiante soledad o la alegría y optimismo más exultantes y esplendidos en la mas profunda, pura y simple perfeccion de la belleza de su música .
It's impressive how Et Incarnatus sound like Bach, but with Mozart's particularities. Amazing!
Божественные солисты и❤ весь ансамбль
nice, such wonderful passion...
Glorious, angelic, thank you!
❤месса прекрасна именно в хоровом исполнении чудесны и солисты
La música de Mozart empieza a sonar y se inunda una atmósfera tal que suena todos los acordes de la vida, uno se siente tan lleno y elevado, que piensa que no puede ser algo terrenal. Que es algo del cielo. Y realmente lo es...
Amazing! Well Done
Vos de Ángel ‘la soprana es maravillosa
surely the first song on this concert, is one of mozarts finest.
What a versatile musician Mozart is ！
All of Mozart‘s music speaks to the soul

So, Mozart really did program in C.
