Martinu Field Mass H279

Bohuslav Martinu’s ā€œField Massā€ is one of his most significant vocal-instrumental works. It originated in 1939 in Paris in response to the outbreak of World War II and was intended for outdoor performance. The libretto, by JirĆ­ Mucha, contains references to the Bible.

This study score adopts the musical text from the Bohuslav Martinu Complete Edition, Volume VI/2/2. As an interesting performance alternative, the appendix contains an early version of the ending that quotes the medieval Czech hymn ā€œJezu Kriste, Å”tedrý knežeā€ (Jesus Christ, Generous Prince).
