About Missa Praeter rerum
This setting of the Mass Ordinary, Missa Praeter rerum, is for double choir (SSTTBB) and uses both Greek and Latin texts. The opening Kyrie eleison, Christe eleison, Kyrie eleison, is sung in Greek, reflecting the ancient tradition of the Mass. Le Maistre’s work offers a substantial and richly textured experience for choirs looking to explore the sacred repertoire. Its polyphonic writing is well-suited for a full liturgical setting or a concert programme where the intricate interplay between the two choirs can be fully appreciated.
