Title: Toned-Down Version, But Pleasing
Review: Those who may have seen MASS live at the Kennedy Center,or who remember PBS's 1981 broadcast of that lavish production, will be in for a surprise with this production performed at the Paul VI Hall of Audiences at Vatican City. The set is minimal, there are no marching bands, no lavish banners, and yet this production of Leonard Bernstein's MASS is still quite a pleasure to watch and listen to. The singers are more than competent, and what the show lacks in scenery and props, it more than makes up for in "heart." This is a nice MASS.
