W. A. Mozart – Coronation Mass
16 – 19 May 2024 in Wroclaw (Poland)
WROCLAW – the capital of Silesia
Wroclaw is one of the oldest and most beautiful cities in Poland. There are hundreds of sights and places worth visiting here. The most important monument is the Gothic Town Hall on the Market Square. A special experience is the Panorama of Raclawice – one of the largest circular paintings in the world.
The Coronation Mass in C major (KV 317) by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, was most probably composed for the Easter service of 1779 at the Salzburg Cathedral. Immediately after his death this church composition, which was probably Mozart’s most popular, became the preferred mass setting for services at imperial and royal coronations as well as at thanksgiving services. The festive symphonic elements and the clear separation of solo and choir voices are typical of this mass. Through its musical expressiveness it surpasses all other Salzburg masses.
