Publisher's Synopsis
""Mass In D For Soli, Chorus, And Orchestra"" is a musical composition by Ethel Smyth, first published in 1893. It is a large-scale work for vocal soloists, choir, and orchestra, written in the classical tradition of the Catholic Mass. The piece is divided into several movements, each with its own distinct character and musical style. The soloists and choir sing in Latin, and the music features lush harmonies, intricate counterpoint, and dramatic contrasts between the different sections. Smyth's Mass in D is considered a significant contribution to the choral repertoire and is still performed today by choirs and orchestras around the world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
