Where it came from
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart composed the Great Mass in C Minor, K. 427, in 1782 and 1783 in Vienna. Unlike his earlier liturgical works, this mass was not a formal commission but a personal vow Mozart made upon his marriage to Constanze Weber. It remains one of his most ambitious choral compositions, reflecting his deep study of the works of J.S. Bach and Handel during that period. The work is notable for its symphonic breadth and virtuosic demands, though it remained unfinished at the time of its premiere in Salzburg.
The 1987 EMI Eminence release, catalog number EMX 2120, features a performance led by conductor Franz Welser-Möst, featuring soloists Edith Wiens, Felicity Lott, Laurence Dale, and Robert Lloyd. This recording was part of EMI's budget-friendly Eminence series, which aimed to make high-quality classical interpretations accessible to a broader audience. Welser-Möst’s interpretation is recognized for its clarity and structural rigor, serving as an early indicator of his rising profile in the international conducting circuit during the late 1980s.
