Description
Church music played a remarkably important role in Busoni's early works.
The mass setting designated as "Missa Beatae Mariae Virginis" was hitherto unpublished, since the composer rejected all of his early works around the turn of the century. This score convincingly shows that Busoni took himself to task much too severely and nearly prevented posterity from enjoying this impressive vocal work.
