Vorisek Missa in B-flat major (Missa solemnis Op.24) (Full Score, paperback)
Jan Vaclav Vorisek (1791 - 1825) was born in Northeast Bohemia and educated in Prague. From 1813 he became one of the most important Czech émigrés in Vienna where he continued his musical studies and gained a reputation as an excellent pianist.
His compositions follow the Bach-Mozartian tradition leading to the pioneering musical expression of Schubert and Chopin. He was able to follow the great examples of world music whilst preserving the individuality and maturity of the typically Czech melodic expression.
Vorisek’s famous Missa in B-flat was written around the time when Beethoven's Missa solemnis was composed.
