☞ BA 9038-91 Choral score
This Urtext edition takes
into account all the sources
including the old and the
new complete editions whose
relationship is clearly
explained in a stemma. In
several passages the
renowned Beethoven
specialist Barry Cooper has
arrived at variant readings,
such as in the “Sanctus”,
where the choir enters
instead of the soloists, rather
than coming in at “Pleni sunt
coeli”. No less worthy of
mention is the addition of the
soloists to the choir in most
of the “Credo”. These matters
and many other editorial
decisions are documented in
the detailed Critical
Commentary (Eng).
Mass in C maj
op. 86 (Lat)
Urtext / Ed. B. Cooper
☞ BA 9039-90° Vocal score
Drawing on the rich body
of sources, Beethoven
specialist Barry Cooper
suggests practical solutions
to the work’s musical and
interpretative problems. His
deep study of the sources
convinced him to include a
fully realized organ part in
the score, just as Beethoven
envisioned it for the first
printed edition. As stated in
the sources, the parts for the
soloists and choir are notated
on joint staves to demonstrate
that the soloists are also to
sing the choral passages.
