Messe Solennelle, St. Cecilia: For Soli and Chorus is a musical composition by the French composer Charles Gounod. It was written in 1896 and is a solemn mass for soloists and choir. The piece is dedicated to St. Cecilia, the patron saint of music. The work is divided into several sections, including the Kyrie, Gloria, Credo, Sanctus, Benedictus, and Agnus Dei. The music is characterized by its grandeur and solemnity, with powerful choral passages and soaring melodies. The piece is performed with an orchestra, and the soloists are typically sopranos, altos, tenors, and basses. Messe Solennelle, St. Cecilia is considered one of Gounod's most significant works and is frequently performed in churches and concert halls around the world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
