SCHUBERT  Mass No. 6

Written in the final year of his life, Schubert’s Mass in E Flat is a work of uncommon power and poignant reflection from a composer facing his own mortality. It is preceded by his “Unfinished” Symphony, presented in between movements of Berg’s Lyric Suite. Through this fascinating juxtaposition, spanning more than a century, Schubert’s pioneering artistry and Berg’s latent romanticism are brought into illuminating relief.
