missa

Among other things I heard for the first time the difficult Missa Solennis.

Old Missa looked after her as well as she could, and never lost sight of her if she could help it.

Missa had been a mother to her from the moment she realised she was living in this world; she would tell her all.

The last effort dates from 1819 and, strangely enough, falls in the middle of his work on the Missa Solemnis.

Never, it may be said, did so great an artwork as is the Missa Solemnis see its creation under more adverse circumstances.
