Mainzer Domchor, Mainzer Domorchester, Karsten Storck
Gounod’s St Cecilia Mass is a hearteningly upbeat affair, culminating in a blazing finale. The Messe brève, written for the lower voices, is more restrained but worth exploring too. — More…

Gounod: St Cecilia Mass
Irmgard Seefried, Gerhard Stolze & Hermann Uhde
Czech Philharmonic Chorus & Orchestra, Igor Markevitch
