The Missa Solemnis op. 79, one of the most important masses, is scored for an orchestra and organ, together with four solo singers and chorus and has a highly dramatic, symphonic style. The Missa Solemnis was first performed in St. Petersburg in April 1824, under the musical supervision and financial support of Prince Nikolai Galitzin.
