Product Description: Franz Schubert's Mass in G major D 167, composed in 1815, is one of the best-known sacred works from the composer's early period. Schubert was only eighteen at the time, yet he created a work distinguished by the maturity of its musical language, melodic richness and the remarkable lyricism of its vocal writing.

The composition consists of six movements: Kyrie, Gloria, Credo, Sanctus, Benedictus and Agnus Dei. Schubert's characteristic combination of simplicity and expression gives the work a clear liturgical character while also providing considerable concert appeal. Choral sections alternate with solo passages and richly developed instrumental writing, forming a coherent musical whole.

This edition published by Breitkopf & Härtel contains the musical material for Mass in G major D 167 for performance with choir and orchestra. It is a valuable repertoire choice for choirs, orchestral ensembles and music institutions preparing a performance of Schubert's sacred masterpiece.
