"I wanted to portray the nation's faith, not on a religious basis but on a strong moral one", wrote Janácek of his great Glagolitic Mass, one of the most dramatic and original of all Mass settings. Riccardo Chailly's powerful reading is accompanied by world premiere recordings of two major late-Romantic works by Zemlinsky and Korngold.

Leoš Janácek (1854-1928) - Mša glagolskaja (Glagolitic Mass) [40.35]
Alexander Zemlinsky (1871-1942) - Psalm 83 [12.18]
Erich Wolfgang Korngold (1897-1957) - Passover Psalm, op.30 [8.23]
