About

After a celebrated 'Stabat Mater' recorded to great acclaim, the RIAS-Kammerchor followed up with Rossini’s other masterpiece in the domain of sacred music and on a single CD. This 'Petite Messe' is indeed small in terms of the forces deployed - the instrumental accompaniment is limited to two pianos and a harmonium, but it also well deserves the adjective 'solemn' for its ample scale and its formidable dramatic power.

Dazzled, like all his critical colleagues, Filippo Filippi wrote after the first performance in March 1864: "This time, Rossini has surpassed himself, for no-one can tell what is the more impressive, his learning or his inspiration".
