Music #189 - Mozart Great Mass

Mass No.17 for vocal soloists, chorus & orchestra in c
- aka "Great Mass in C minor" / "Große Messe in c-Moll", K.427

It is a musical setting of the Mass by Mozart.  The large-scale work... remained unfinished.  Even so, it has been ranked as one of the three greatest Mass settings, with Bach's Mass in B Minor, and Beethoven's Missa Solemnis.
