ABOUT THE RECORDING
After the international success with the recording of Handel’s Messiah, Collegium 1704 returns to the works of its “composer laureate” Jan Dismas Zelenka. Independently composed parts of the mass ordinary from 1724-1725, connected not only by unified musical expression and instrumentation but also by their dramatic nature and emotions of grief and passion, have been combined by Václav Luks, artistic director and conductor of Collegium 1704, into an imaginary mass entitled Missa 1724.

REVIEWS
Despite the confident appellation ‘Missa 1724’ this is, in effect, a kind of parody mass with its movements sourced from diverse works. Václav Luks reinforces the point in his booklet notes, acknowledging that the movements are not related to each other but that it’s an opportunity to bring this part of Zelenka’s music to public recognition.
