Missa Solemnis Concert Tickets
Listen to a performance of the Solemn Mass with Missa Solemnis tickets. The Missa solemnis is an offshoot of the musical setting of the Mass Ordinary, which is typically festively scored, with extensive use of the Latin Mass, instead of the shortened for Missa brevis. When the term Missa solemnis is not accompanied by a composer’s name, it is generally understood that the version performed is the one composed by Ludwig Van Beethoven.
Beethoven, who was born in Bonn, Germany in 1770, was one of the most important composers who lived and composed during the transition from the Classical period to the Romantic era. His Missa solemnis in D Major, Op. 123 was composed in the years 1819 to 1822. Enjoy a classical mass with Missa Solemnis concert tickets. The debut performance of the mass was on April 7, 1824, in Saint Petersburg, Russia. The mass is considered one of Beethoven’s masterworks and is, along with Mass in B minor, by Bach, considered the best and most significant Masse of the common practice period, or tonal system era.
The piece was dedicated to Archduke Rudolf of Austria, the archbishop of Olmutz, who was Beethoven’s friend and student, as well as his patron. Beethoven’s Missa solemnis consists of five movements, including the Kyrie, the Gloria, the Credo and Sanctus along with the Agnus Dei.

What are the best seats to see Missa Solemnis live?
Opera seating choices rely on both financial capabilities and personal viewing preferences. Audience members should choose mid-to-front rows in the center orchestra for the ideal sound and view combination but those who want a grand panoramic perspective should opt for seats in the front mezzanine or balcony. People should choose seats in the middle orchestra or mezzanine for the best acoustic experience because opera houses have sound systems that transmit sound efficiently to these areas. The rear orchestra and balcony sections offer affordable seating choices at the expense of slightly reduced sound quality.
