This legendary recording of Bach’s B minor

Mass was made, most unusually, in two places

and with two orchestras. The Vienna

Philharmonic Orchestra was booked,

anonymously, to record the choruses with the

Choral Society of the Friends of Music,Vienna,

while the reduced forces of the Philharmonia,

with the section principals for instrumental

solo parts, accompanied the solos and duets

in London. Critical comment on this recording

when it first appeared in 1954 was virtually

unanimous. The Record Guide (Collins, 1955)

remarked “The principal qualities of Karajan’s

reading are lightness, absolute clarity of

sound and rhythmic buoyancy, all of them

qualities that many performances miss …

Karajan, and [the] engineers, allow us to hear

all the vocal and instrumental parts. Choral

and solo singing are delightful”.
