With his B minor Mass, Bach confided to humanity a work of universal artistic and spiritual greatness and one of the most important examples of human creation. It reaches well beyond Bach’s religious spirituality that he, a true believer, transmitted using his ingenious harmonic and contrapuntal skill. It guides us towards another form of spirituality in which spirit tries to transcend matter and in which hope becomes infused into a spiritual experience that goes far beyond the human condition. This work induced man to develop his intellectual and emotional skills and to rise towards a superior state of consciousness. Bach never heard this work in its entirety; and it took Romanticism to renew interest in this work, so the entire Mass was performed in concert in 1835 in Frankfurt. Ever since, the resulting fame and recognition helped to give the B minor Mass the place it deserves.
