Finally, a video production of Bernstein's Mass

Somehow I missed the inaugural presentation of Bernsten's Mass at the opening of the Kennedy Center and had to content myself with the audio only open reel rendition, conducted by the composer.
To see it now in all of its glory as performed at the Vatican (and attended by a slew of prelates thereby laying to rest the iconoclastic criticisms it elicited at first) is a treat not to be missed. All is topnotch here -- production, costumes, decor, singing, setting, orchestral conducting and playing -- doing full justice to the the excellency of the score. This DVD occupies a pride of place in my collection.

Fantastic Recording - but a poor booklet

Fantastic dvd of a life-performance of Bernstein's MASS, performed in 2000 in the Vatican City. Fantastic pictures, great acting and wonderful music.
The only negative point: the dvd-booklet is quite poor. It only contains the artists' names and the number of scenes. No information about the performance or the work itself.

Mass, Leonhard Bersntein

The original recording, that was conduced by Bersntein is bettter than this .
