Overview

At the Salzburg Festival 2012, during the Ouverture Spirituelle series, Nikolaus Harnoncourt conducted two of Mozart’s rarely performed sacred works—Missa Longa in C Major, K.262 and Litaniae de venerabili altaris sacramento, K.243. These profound pieces were composed by Mozart at the tender age of twenty, yet they carry immense spiritual depth. Performed in the majestic Salzburg Cathedral, this concert showcases the exquisite talents of the Arnold Schoenberg Chor and the Concentus Musicus Wien, offering a moving interpretation of these sacred masterpieces.

The Missa Longa and Litaniae are rich in vocal and instrumental contrasts, and under Harnoncourt’s baton, the performance becomes a sublime expression of Mozart’s early genius. The ensemble, featuring acclaimed soloists Sylvia Schwartz, Elisabeth von Magnus, Jeremy Ovenden, and Florian Boesch, brings these intricate compositions to life in a stunning Baroque setting.
