Of a work as great as the Missa solemnis it can hardly be said that one movement is more 'important' than another

Renowned conductor Nathalie Stutzmann leads the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra and Atlanta Symphony Chorus through Ludwig Van Beethoven's emotional Missa Solemnis in D Major Op. 123, to close out the Beethoven Project. One of the most thought-provoking mass settings which challenges its listeners, it is an intense contemplation of both belief and uncertainty, encompassing moments of euphoria and distress, sublime elegance and drama.
A notoriously challenging piece for singers, only the best can truly tackle this monumental work. In step the exhilarating voices of the Symphony Chorus, joined for this performance by four excellent soloists from the world of opera in Julia Gruter, Anna Goryachova, Miles Mykkanen and Lawson Anderson. Don't miss this exquisite performance of one of the rarer pieces of Beethoven.
