Completed in the final year of his life, the monumental Mass in B minor is arguably Bach’s greatest achievement. Forming a compilation of earlier music, mainly cantata settings, it forms an extraordinary narrative of faith. All in all, it is the perfect realisation of his endlessly flexible and inventive musical style. An outstanding line-up of vocal soloists complements the period-style agility of Yorkshire Baroque Soloists.
