Talk:Mass (Bernstein)

message: I took part in a live performance of Mass many years ago, and I'm certain that the last words "The Mass is ended: go in peace" are actually heard over pre-recorded tape: they are not spoken live by the Celebrant.  Feel free to correct if anyone has an authoritative source. Grover cleveland 20:53, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Huh. I took part in a live performance as well, 1988 at Tanglewood, and I'm certain that the Celebrant spoke it live. However, our production didn't have an "altar server" either. Perhaps it varies depending on production? NerwenGreen 05:42, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I'd have to go look, but I'm pretty sure that the booklet of the recording from a couple years ago (on Harmonia Mundi) mentions that it's pre-recorded, and IIRC is Bernstein himself. ♫ Melodia Chaconne ♫ 11:41, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

message: Shouldn't this more properly be Mass (Bernstein)?  Other masses are dab'd by composer's name....  —  MusicMaker5376 17:16, 17 October 2007 (UTC)

text: This should not necessarily follow the convention used for other masses. It's not in fact a mass, but a theatrical piece titled Mass.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by VAMark (talk • contribs) 21:34, 14 June 2017 (UTC)

message: Regarding the instrumentation, there is an acoustic piano used at bar 35 of 'Meditation no. 2', and also used to accompany the 'Our Father' (in unison with the Celebrant), yet it does not appear on the list of instruments, even in the official score!

message: Shouldn't the article have a section on how it was received?  What do critics and others think of it? 206.53.197.24 (talk) 15:13, 27 September 2008 (UTC)

message: Is there a source for the info about the European premier of the piece?  The Yale Symphony Orchestra claims to have given the European premier almost a decade earlier:
"The Yale Symphony Orchestra put itself on the map when it toured France in 1971, thereby making not only its international debut but its very first appearance outside of New Haven.  Its international stature grew considerably with the June, 1973 European premiere of Leonard Bernstein's controversial "Mass" at the Weiner Konzerthaus." here Masily box (talk) 13:45, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

message: There is an "FBI warning" section here, but if I go to Leonard Bernstein's page, I only find an external link referring to FBI.  Should the FBI file be mentioned within the Leonard Bernstein article?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.63.16.20 (talk) 21:37, 1 May 2015 (UTC)
