Mass for Christmas Morning

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com essential recording
This exhilarating disc is arguably the most important record Paul McCreesh has made. Praetorius, the first great composer of Lutheran church music, wrote countless pieces based on popular Lutheran chorale tunes, ranging from simple harmonizations to flamboyant fantasias for multiple choirs with instruments. He also provided detailed instructions regarding various performance options--including ways to involve the congregation. Here, for the first time, McCreesh puts these instructions into practice, reconstructing an extravagant Christmas service. We hear elaborately scored Mass movements, simple harmonizations, the Creed (with Luther's own music), lusty congregational singing, and spirited organ improvisations. Many of the Christmas chorales Praetorius used are still well-known today, including Wachet auf (Sleepers wake) and In dulci jubilo, which gets a magnificent setting with trumpet-and-drum fanfares. --Matthew Westphal

This is awesome!.......2002-12-13

I love this bos set, especially the second one Edelweiss is simply great, it's filled with passion and truly shows the beauty of music.But if you had already bought Ave Maria and Edelweiss please don't buy this one, they are the same, this CD is just perfect!

Awesome CD!!.......2002-06-07

Wow...That was my first word when I listend to this CD.

I like classical numbers more than like traditional songs of
other countries, so the 1st one was wonderful
(Of course as well as the second one.)

When you want to relax, you may choose the 1st one, but
if you want to be excited, choose 2nd one!!

You will feel as if you were out of this world.

I absolutely LOVE this!.......2002-02-20

When I received this album, I found that it was much, much more than I had expected. The angelic, pure, innocent yet DEFINED voices of these boys add the spark to your day. (at least to mine!)

The first CD is absolutely beautiful choral music which is really relaxing. I DO prefer boys' singing to adults, because it just sounds so much better.
When I bought the CD, I wasn't expecting much out of the second CD because I bought it for the first CD's sake, but the second CD turned out to be my real favorite.
Not that I don't adore the first one, but the second one is SO IRRESISTABLY CUTE!! whenever I listen to it, I keep on smiling and going "awww. isn't this cute!"
It is REALLY sweet and fun to listen to. I just LOVE this CDs and want to give 10 stars out of 5, but obviously there are limitations, so..

Well, if you like choral music, you won't regret getting this one.

Vienna Boys do it again.......2001-08-18

Their performance is just superb. If you like classical music. I find this elevating my spirits.

Wow.......2000-09-06

What can really be said about this two CD set except "Wow." The tone quality and emotion contained in the music is incredible, and I don't think there's another boys' choir out there who can match it. The rendition of Schubert's "Ave Maria" alone is worth buying the CD. Amazing. Between the two CD's there is a great variety of music as well, ranging from the soft, sad "Locus Iste," to Johann Strauss' polkas. There is a piece for every mood. These CDs are more than worth the money and rank among the favorites in my collection.

Album Description

This is the FIRST ALL NEW RECORDING OF JOHN RUTTER'S MUSIC IN TEN YEARS! "Mass of the Children was written in late 2002 and early 2003. The occasion of its first performance in February 2003 was a concert in New York's Carnegie Hall involving children's choir, adult choir, soprano and baritone soloists, and orchestra. I had always wanted to write a work combining children's choir with adult performers, not only because I find the sound of children's voices irresistible but also because I wanted to repay a debt. As a boy soprano in my school choir I had been thrilled whenever our choir took part in adult works with children's choir parts, such as the Mahler Third Symphony and the Britten War Requiem, and years later I remembered this experience and wanted to write something that would give children a similar opportunity to perform alongside adult professionals". From the notes - John Rutter

Mass of the Children.......2006-03-24

My daughter is performing this work with her high school chorale. She is the main listener, and is totally enamored with this particular recording.

A Brilliant Masterpiece.......2005-12-24

After being able to perform this piece myself, I know that is is just amazing! I reccomend it to anyobdy who likes spiritual, uplifting music.
Nice work, Mr. Rutter!

Britten-lite :(.......2005-03-30

I contemplated on this 3-star rating for a bit, especially after reading all the 4- to 5-star ratings preceding this. John Rutter is a terrific and charismatic choral conductor and writer. His editing on Fauré's Requiem really galvanized the popularity of that work, not to mention his own very heart-felt Requiem setting as well. Speaking of Requiem settings, my bone to pick about the "Mass of the Children" work is such that it emulates (albeit in a heart-felt and sincere fashion) other large-scale works that involve orchestral, treble and mixed choruses, very specifically Benjamin Britten's unforgettable War Requiem. I couldn't help but feel a bit slighted by the last few pages of "Mass of the Children" and its much diluted rendition of the War Requiem's counterpart conclusion. I think those famliar w/ the Britten will know what I mean. It's hard not to draw a comparison because the similarities are striking yet determinedly contrived.

In any case, I do understand that the participants and "target audience" are perhaps less lofty than that of the Britten. According to the score inscription, this was "written at the inviation of Peter Tiboris and MidAmerica Productions."

There are other anthems on this CD that offer a nice addition. I think the Clare Benediction is a stand-out as a great latter-Rutter anthem, with a characteristically satisfying, fluent and "inevitable" cadences towards the end.

Outstanding!.......2004-12-27

As an avid choral enthusiast, and having performed The Mass of the Children, I can say that this is one of Rutter's finest works. Without a doubt, Rutter truly allows his soul to shine through in this masterpiece. The children's choir is fabulous, and the music gives me chill bumps whenever I hear it. I highly recommend this album!

Beautiful!.......2004-09-11

I sing with my school choir, and was blessed to be able to perform the Mass of the Children with the school. It is a beautiful mass-- the lightness of the childrens voices with the power of the adult choirs make a moving and powerful mass. The orchestra is stunning, just enough to add beauty to the piece. Rutter's Mass of the Children is a must-have for any person who enjoys this type of music.

***** - 8, 9, 10. There we go: 10 stars........2006-11-19

i have had this recording for several years now. its the first one of mccreesh's i bought. and i bought it based solely on the exceptional reviews given here on amazon (4 or 5 at the time). it is unarguably pointless to write a review now, but i am going to anyway ;o).

As if you needed any further encouragement to buy this record...i will agree with all the preceding raves. i dont even mind the rackets and crumhorns and shawms, etc. - adds character. i would like to highlight one track here against the others: Puer Natus in Bethlehem. This one never gets old. such tremendous energy and powerful joy. i honestly have to wonder about the structural integrity of Roskilde Cathedral after the performance of this one piece. Nowhere else in all of his recordings is McCreesh's unparalleled talent illustrated. His scholarship, arrangement, and interpretation of this piece is a rare treasure of this genre. Considering another comparison with the Roland Wilson on Sony Vivarte release, yes, McCreesh's effort clearly has first place. Back to the entire recording, other standouts include the opening chorale - one of the most exotic and grabbing harmonies you will ever hear, the Quempas (although the cathedral acoustics do rob some of the subtle harmonies that really make this piece), and the final hymn Puer Nobis Nascitur: simple, but, again, infectious and addictive expression of the highest joy. I would also echo a previous reviewer's comment about the Roskilde organ. The tone and sonic capabilities of this instrument are simply astonishing.

Again, this review is unnecessary so far as selling is concerned, but the work represented here deserves many more. Go ahead and pick this one up, and give it the place of honor in your entire collection.

Brilliant, transcendent..........2006-11-05

I can only pile on to the other glowing reviews: this is a tour de force of choral and solo singing as well as instrumental color. With deference to Steven Guy (who's done yeoman's service in producing public-domain versions of some of this music!), I'd have to say I can gladly overlook the historical inaccuracy of using crumhorns, racketts etc. in exchange for the sheer sense of scale and awe that McCreesh provides. I own the Musica Fiata recording he mentions, and it's excellent--but it probably won't send 10,000 volts through your skull the way the massed choirs, ensembles and organ on this disc will.

Stunning, incredible, beautiful, glorious, etc........2006-02-07

After about the 3rd or 4th time I listened to this, I was absolutely enchanted. Now, having heard it 30+ times, I still hear new beauty each time. Really magnificent. Jesus Christ is glorified in this masterpiece. I get the sense of deep joy of the Reformation, being transported to Germany circa 1620. The singers sing with all their might about the glory of God, the grace of Christ, and the beauty of holiness - as if Christ has come into plain view after centuries of distortion. Buy it, listen, and enjoy a taste of heaven.

Thrilling Disc.......2005-06-17

This CD absolutely blew me away the first time I listened to it. I play it often and each time feel as though I have been transported to heaven. McCreesh really outdid himself on this recording. Right from the very beginning the listener is taken out of the 21st century and thrown back to a 17th century cathedral. Just close your eyes, forget where you are, and join the lovely processional that begins the Mass with Christus wir sollen Loben. Other great moments include: Quem Pastoris Laudevere, and Wie schoen leuchtet der Morgenstern. The crowning glory of this recording is the recessional: In dulci Jubilo. Complete with tympani, brass, choirs and congregation, this work does not exhibit "peaceful joy" rather exhilaration! I would highly recommend this CD to anyone interested in church and choral music!

Holy Grail of Lutheran Christmas Eve services.......2005-01-17

This recording of a 17th Century Lutheran Christmas service in all of its grandeur is simply a must-have for any Lutheran. The authenticity of the instrumentation, the language of the liturgy (Middle-High German and Latin), and the awesome power and emotion generated by combining these elements is almost overwhelmingly beautiful. Due to the nature of recording in a 13th Century cathedral (Roskilde Cathedral in Denmark), the single voice heard chanting Bible verses such as that of Christ's birth will require you to turn up the volume. However, when the choirs and the organ come to life, you will find out what your stereo system can really do. This is especially true on the last track, "In Dulce Jubilo."

Easily a five-star rating. If I could, I would give it ten stars. Musicians, religious scholars, and clergy alike will make this a cherished addition to their collections. This is what Christmas should be about. All those dainty "holiday" songs you hear every year are simply put to shame by this single CD.

Customer Reviews:

Buy this before it gets out of print (again)!.......2003-02-08

Originally entitled (translated to English) "Gregorian Chants for Christmas," this album is actually on its second release. During its first release, I bought it on cassette -- out of curiosity because of the artistic, medieval Christmassy cover (not the same cover you see now, unfortunately). I didn't know what to expect then.

But the MUSIC -- it will touch your soul even if you're not Catholic (I'm Protestant). The melofluent voices of the Benedictine monks of Munsterschwarzach were conducted excellently and perfectly by Pater Godehard Joppich.

I don't know why, but the Benedictine monks are the best when it comes to Gregorian chants. Remember the monks of Santo Domingo de Silos who topped the charts years ago with their "Chant" albums? They also belong to the Benedictine Order. I've compared Benedictine chanting with the works of other religious orders; others are just mediocre. If you don't believe me, perform a comparative analysis.

...

In 2001, due to popular demand, Archiv re-released the album -- and this is so much better because of the bonus CD: the same Benedictine monks under the same conductor chanting for the Lenten season! One CD for Christmas and another for Lent! This is perfect for your meditation during these two holiest events in the Christian calendar. I also listen to this music when I do my arts and crafts; it inspires and keeps me focused on my work. <... I advise you to experience the etherial.
