About the Book
Padre João de Deus de Castro Lobo was born in the late eighteenth-century, the zenith of colonial creativity in Brazil.
The Mass in D Minor is arguably his finest work. Although it shares similar characteristics with the Italian opera of the period, it retains a homophonic choral style, characteristic of Brazilian colonial music to this day. In this seminal publication, Lobo's masterpiece is presented in its entirety with an introduction by Harry Crowl that situates the composer and his work in its historical and societal contexts.
