	Uniqueness in the heart of Europe - Glagolitic Script
		For all the Slavs the common legacy bequeathed them by St.Cyril and Methodius was the right to celebrate Mass and conduct all church services in their own tongue, while the rest of the world retained the Latin services until the Vatican II.
		In its conception and as a linguistic tool, glagolitic script was an amazing achievement – a tool to give power of the written word to half the Europe.
		It was also a powerful demonstration of the effective use of the native language in spreading a new religion and a new concept of the world.

	Istria on the Internet - Linguistics - Glagolitic
		Although the Latin holds the chief place among the liturgical languages in which the Mass is celebrated and the praise of God recited in the Divine Offices, yet the Slavonic language comes next to it among the languages widely used throughout the world in the liturgy of the Church.
		Thus the Roman Mass was translated into the Slavonic, and, in order to more fully distinguish the Western Rite from the Eastern Rite among the Slavic peoples, the use of the Glagolitic alphabet was reserved exclusively for the service books of the Roman Rite, just as the Cyrillic was used for the Greek Rite.
		At present the Slavonic language for the Roman Rite, printed in Glagolitic characters, is used in the Slavic churches of the Dioceses of Zengg, Veglia, Zara, and Spalato, and also by the Franciscans in their three churches in Veglia, one in Cherso, two in Zara, and one in Sebenico.

	Leos Janacek
		The term ‘Glagolitic’ refers to the original script in which Old Church Slavonic was written.
		The Mass is peppered with Janáček’s customary traits; use of repeated motives (Sir Charles Mackerras is recently quoted as saying that he was the first minimalist composer), short bursts of lyricism and bizarre, often surprising groupings of instruments within the orchestra.
		The Glagolitic Mass is a triumphant work (quite apart from Janáček’s thoughts on religion) and much like his opera The Cunning Little Vixen celebrates life overcoming death.

	'Glagolitic Mass' a rare experience
		These days, Janacek's "Glagolitic Mass" doesn't get played as often as his operas -- a shame, since the 1926 Mass is one of the Czech composer's crowning achievements.
		The "Glagolitic Mass" was the main event on a program that also included Tilson Thomas' own "Island Music," and selections from Luciano Berio's "Duets for Two Violins," featuring members of the S.F. Symphony and S.F. Symphony Youth Orchestra.
		Adventurous music lovers are advised to secure whatever tickets remain, particularly to hear the rarely performed "Glagolitic Mass" (the San Francisco Symphony has played it only twice before, in 1985 and 1994).

		His music is full-sounding but actually relatively sparse in content, relying on repetitions of thematic fragments to build up a mood.
		(I wonder how many of today's minimalists bow in the direction of this Moravian composer's grave every day.) Written late in life (1926; died 1928), the Glagolitic Mass is Janacek at his boldest and most self-assured.
		The chorus is never allowed to lose sight of the larger structure of the work; its phrasing is carefully molded to enhance the cumulating of tension so important to this piece.

		It is one of the ironies of Janácek’s Glagolitic Mass that so many previous recordings have been under Western conductors and Western orchestras.
		The entry of the chorus for the Allelujah is a moment of pure exultation, the great brass chorales acting as a contrast to the high, figurative sopranos emerging from the choir.
		Mackerras' second recording of the Glagolitic Mass has as its coupling Kodaly's Hungarian Psalm, a fine performance to accompany his world premiere recording of the original version of the Mass.

	Безѹмниѥ » Blog Archive » Janáček’s Glagolitic Mass is useless (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
		Instead of setting the mass in Latin, as is the fashion and which he himself considered in 1908, Janáček instead decided to look far back into his country’s history and set the mass in Old Church Slavonic.
		Not only did Janáček piece together the work from two imperfect attempts at getting to an OCS mass, but in the process of revising the music he would write out the text from memory and fail to check it against the source.
		A scholar, Miloš Weingart, attempted to correct the text in 1928, but he felt he had to omit the nasal vowels, thinking them too difficult for singers, and had to leave out the missing jers lest he add a hundred extra syllables to the work.
