Description
Dvořák's Mass in D major was commissioned for the ceremonial consecration of the castle chapel at Luzany, the seat of architect and benefactor Josef Hlavka.

This joyful work, revealing Dvořák's intimate knowledge of rural Czech sacred music, is written for solo voices, mixed choir and organ.
