Programme notes: Schubert wrote the "Deutsche Messe" (original title: "Gesänge zur Feier des heiligen Opfers der Messe" D 872) in 1826 on behalf of Johann Philipp Neumann, who also wrote the texts. Schubert himself has two versions, one for four-part mixed choir with organ and another, which additionally includes two oboes, clarinets, bassoons, horns and trumpets as well as three trombones, timpani and a double bass. Both the - at that time untypical - use of the national language by which Deutsche Messe got its name, as well as the very free, associative and romanticising translation and interpretation of the liturgical text led to the initial rejection of Opus by the Vienna Archbishop's Consistory. However, it soon gained unusual popularity and esteem, particularly due to the spread of the German prayer and singing mass in the first half of the 20th century. Quelle/source: Stiftschor Bonn
