Soloists: Carmen Acosta, Mario Zeffiri, William Matteuzzi, Cristoforos Stamboglis // The Messa di Gloria was composed for the Arciconfraternita di San Luigi. First performed on 24 March 1820 in the Chiesa di San Ferdinando in Naples, it is in the traditional form of a "Gloria" mass, that is a setting of the first two prayers of the Catholic Mass, the Kyrie and Gloria. The Messa di Gloria was the only major piece of sacred music written while Rossini was still an active opera composer.
