About This Song
About "Missa alla brevis, BuxWV 114: Gloria" by Ars Nova Copenhagen
Ars Nova Copenhagen illuminates Buxtehude's Gloria with crystalline polyphony. The opening 'Gloria' feels like light fracturing through stained glass—serene yet structurally restless, each voice a shard of devotional fire. Tension simmers between communal praise and individual ecstasy, a baroque chiaroscuro of sound.
