J.S. Bach’s Mass in B Minor, one of his final compositions, is considered to be his greatest and most complex musical achievement. Never performed in its entirety in his lifetime, Bach’s musical legacy continues to influence generations composers.
Although not intended for liturgical use, the music draws on a lifetime of composition. A journey through the emotional depth of Bach’s Mass in B Minor is a life-enhancing, transformative experience.
