JOHANN SEBASTIAN BACH Missa  (Mass in B- minor ) 3 LP Linen Box  Set 

STEREO ED1  Deutschen grammophon ARCHIV  198 190/922 SAPM German pressing from 1963

I have acquired a large classical collection of wonderful recordings from a very keen and dedicated collector.

They are all mostly from the late 50s to mid 60s - Something of a Golden Age in Classical recording

All records are inspected very carefully and 

Gradings are based on Record Collector magazine.

I try to only offer recordings in a minimum of excellent Condition unless it is something particularly rare when I will do my best to describe any visual or audible flaws

The linen Box and booklet are both in  EXCELLENT  condition complete  with original DG inner sleeves and  card recording insert   

The only other issue is that the previous owner has written a small  S number  on the front  top left corner 

of each inner sleeve in red pen as in photo 2 ( It was his own catalogue system) 

This is of course, close to  50 years old now and is surprisingly good shape for its vintage .


The Mass in B minor   is a glorious  setting of the complete latin Mass .  Bach assembled the Mass in its present form in 1749, 

just before his death in 1750. The Sanctus of the Mass in B minor dates back to 1724.  The Kyrie and Gloria date from 1733 

and  to complete the work  Bach composed new sections of the Credo . A beautiful  STEREO recording from 1961  

and housed in a deluxe box.
