Missa brevis for mixed choir and eight wind instruments Op. 5 was created in 1951 and premiered at the Donaueschingen Festival of Contemporary Music the following year. The Ordinary of the Mass (Kyrie, Gloria, Credo, Sanctus, Agnus Dei) was composed using a modal technique drawing on medieval examples. The use of wind instruments adds to the rich sound of the choir, thus expanding the sound spectrum in an interesting way. The piece is suitable for both liturgy and concert. Hummel wrote a music which is easy to play by all performers and delights the listeners immediately.

This Latin mass for choir and wind band was composed in honour of Saint Cecilia’s feast day, Saint Cecilia being the patroness of musicians. For this reason, many ensembles have annual concerts dedicated to Saint Cecila, which was the inspiration forthis piece. It is a festive, optimistic, but also comforting work, which in style perfectly suits the character of Saint Cecilia’s Feast Day. After Missa Brevis, Missa Katharina and The Gospel Mass, Missa Santa Cecilia isthe fourth published mass by the Dutch composer Jacob de Haan.

Het is een feestelijk, optimistisch, maar ook troostend werk, dat qua stijl uitstekend past bij het karakter van het Sint-Ceciliafeest. Na Missa Brevis, Missa Katharina enThe Gospel Mass is Missa Santa Cecilia de vierde uitgegeven mis van Jacob de Haan.

Mozart wrote the Missa brevis in B flat major K. 275 in 1777. In keeping with the tradition of the genre, the movements are short and succinct. Mozart sometimes even further compresses the work by having different textual passages sung simultaneously. The orchestral scoring is also accordingly concentrated. Alfred Einstein described the expressive content of the mass as intimate, lyrical, almost private and characterized it on the other hand as a work full of delicacy and conspicuous polyphony and, above all, of chromatic agitation and boldness.The autograph of the work is no longer extant. Franz Beyer's Urtext edition is based on one of the most important sources of this work.

According to the date inscribed in Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's autograph score, the present mass was composed in March 1780. The instrumental setting (oboes, trumpets and timpani add color and festive splendor to the work) rightly suggests that the work was in all likelihood performed with the Church Sonata K. 336 at the Easter high mass in the Salzburg cathedral. Since Archbishop Hieronymus Count Colloredo wanted the mass text to be treated as succinctly as possible, Mozart offered him a richly orchestrated Missa solemnis in the terse form of a Missa brevis.The brilliant, festive character of the Mass K. 337 is abruptly interrupted by a powerful Benedictus in a harsh A minor, the most striking and revolutionary movement in all of Mozart's Masses, in the strictest contrapuntal style ... (Alfred Einstein). What could have inspired Mozart to such unexpected rigor? But there is another surprise yet: while the dark drama of the Holy Week seems to radiate from this Benedictus, the following Agnus Dei in the distant key of E flat major sounds, with its soprano solo and concertante oboe, bassoon and organ, like a song of thanksgiving filled with the warmth and light of Easter.Other features worth noting are the three unisons between the alto and bass heard at the Deus pater omnipotens in the Gloria (bars 22-32), the a cappella illumination of the words Jesu Christe found a little later (bar 62) and the descending chromaticism evocative of death at the Crucifixus in the Credo. (Incidentally, Mozart had initially planned a different movement for the Credo of this mass, superscribed Tempo di Chiaconna; he wrote out 136 bars but, for some unknown reason, never completed it.)While the Coronation Mass K. 317 of 1779 is one of Mozart's most well-known mass settings, its later composed frllow piece K. 337 - Mozart's last completed mass before the great C minor fragment K. 427 (417a) - has been paid less attention, even though it is an outstanding example of the Mozartian mass type and contains parallels to the Coronation Mass in its disposition and in the structure of its various movements. The score and piano reduction of this new edition were prepared on the basis of the autograph (Osterreichische Nationalbibliothek/Vienna , dass. no. Mus. Hs. 18 97512) and the Salzburg performance material (Staats- und Stadtbibliothek/Augsburg, dass. no. Hl. Kreuz 9). We wish to thank both libraries for putting the source material at our disposal.Franz Beyer, Munich, Spring 1998.

If serveral music lovers and music directors consider this Mass authentic and truly Mozartian (the words of Sir Ludwig von Kochel), then we are also willing to accept it as such. With the publication of the charming Pastoral Mass K. 140, all of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's masses were now completely available from Breitkopf & Hartel. In addition to the standard features (piano reduction, organ part, choral score, completely purchasable orchestral material), this Mass has a special extra, namely a supplementary organ part, prepared from the sources, with which one can reconstruct the original performance circumstances in Salzburg (with two organs!).

Ensembles which are not large enough to tackle the great masses by Schubert will find a suitable alternative in this compact Mass of 1816, scored for small forces. In size and length (c. 25 minutes) it is like a Missa brevis. The compositional structure is comparatively simple, but without lacking any of the typically Schubertian style in harmony or melody. The wind parts added later by the composer can be regarded as optional, as the work was originally scored for just the south German-Austrian church trio of 2 violins and organ. This work is now available in carus music, the choir app! Score and parts available separately - see item CA.4065800.
