 Schubert Mass in G major May 15, 2013 By Maximo D'Oleo (Bronx, NY) See All My Reviews "For those who love choral music I tell you you won't be disappointing by this record. Since the first bars of the "Kyrie elesion..." until the "dona nobis pacem" in the Agnus Dei, every measure is extremely simple...but beauty." Report Abuse
