Description

The Missa latina is a complete setting of the Latin Mass for solo soprano, large mixed choir (SATB divisi as well as soloists from the choir) and a band consisting of violin, bandoneon (accordion), piano, double bass, drums and percussion. The word “latina” not only refers to the Latin text, but also to the musical style which makes use of Latin-American rhythms. Thus elements from Argentinian tangos stand side by side with Caribbean rhythms and Latin jazz with enough space provided for instrumental improvisations.
