Especially celebrated for its glorious setting for soprano of the Laudate Dominum, Mozart’s Solemn Vespers perhaps reflects some of his feelings on the death of his mother. Coupled with the serene motet, Ave Verum Corpus and the Missa Brevis, this is a feast of Mozart to enjoy in the beautiful setting of the Chapel.
