About This Song
About "Mass in C Major, K. 317 "Coronation Mass" : Mozart: Mass in C Major, K. 317 "Coronation Mass": VIa. Agnus Dei" by Anna Tomowa Sintow
The Agnus Dei begins with a plaintive plea, the soprano's line like a single tear tracing a marble cheek. Mozart's setting is both tender and unsettling, the repeated 'dona nobis pacem' growing more urgent. Tomowa-Sintow captures the fragile hope that peace might be granted.
