Consecrating the Stage: Uwe Scholz's Choreographic Completion of Mozart's Große Messe.

In this essay I investigate Die Große Messe (1998), a contemporary ballet by German choreographer Uwe Scholz (1958–2004). Based on W. A. Mozart's unfinished Mass in C minor and enhanced with music by Thomas Jahn, György Kurtág, and Arvo Pärt, this conceptually complex work constitutes a quasi-liturg...

      ab: In this essay I investigate Die Große Messe (1998), a contemporary ballet by German choreographer Uwe Scholz (1958–2004). Based on W. A. Mozart's unfinished Mass in C minor and enhanced with music by Thomas Jahn, György Kurtág, and Arvo Pärt, this conceptually complex work constitutes a quasi-liturgical praxis, whereby choreomusical events demonstrate a humanistic re-imagining of the sacred ritual. Through the lens of choreomusicology, I analyze how the ballet's media work synergistically to construct, communicate, and transfer meaning, while also reflecting back on the function of the Roman Catholic Mass as liturgy.
