The Glagolitic Mass, written between 1926 and 1927, is not only one
of Janacek's most important works: it is also a masterpiece of the
twentieth-century choral repertoire. In this fascinating account of
the work and its history, Paul Wingfield brings together material
from early articles and reviews, letters and manuscripts which form
a comprehensive account of the work's genesis and performance
history. The author also provides a thorough revision of the Old
Church Slavonic text along with English translation, and
reconstructs Janacek's 'ideal' version of the work - far more
exciting than the less adventurous rearrangement currently
performed. Chapters on the music itself offer a full synopsis of
the Glagolitic Mass, an in-depth discussion of its musical
organisation and a selection of key interpretations of the piece by
Janacek and others.
