Kronstorf, Austria
This month, we are offering Bruckner's early Messe ohne Gloria und Credo (WAB 146) also known as the Kronstorf Mass. The Mass was written around 1844 while Bruckner held a teaching position in Kronstorf. While a CD was made of this work, it is now out-of-print.

A few years ago, when going through the collection of producer, David Aldeborgh, I came across a cassette containing a live performance of the Mass as it was performed in Kronstorf on May 20, 1987. It is that recording which we are offering this month.
