I had not heard Hassler's works a la "stile antico" previously. Great resonance and cathedralesque sound. Michael Stenov, Direktor, Hans Leo Hassler Missa super Dixit Maria. Thank you thousand-fold for this lovely recording.

I sang this just after our cat died a horrible death. First the soprano's, then we altos joined in, and when the tenors came I choked already and when the bass joined it too I was crying like a baby. This is such powerful music. Poor Norbo. I hope God gives him lots of cuddles.

Thank you for sharing this on KZfaq. My choir plans to sing it in May, and it is nice to have a recording of the whole Mass together to listen to! God bless! :-)

8:41 Crucifixus

What the HECK!
