In the musical-historical context Anton Diabelli is among a transitional group of Biedermeier composers who cannot be classed as either classical or romantic. Diabelli's intention was to publish this Mass in accordance with the tradition of his teacher Michael Haydn as a Country Mass, although its technical demands and also its length far exceeded those customary in a Country Mass and Missa brevis. The extant sources offer scope for performance in various different versions as regards the instrumentation used, all these versions having the right to be considered authentic.

Diabelli's church music has unjustly largely fallen into oblivion. In his Pastoral Mass in F, the Austrian composer of the Biedermeier period succeeded in achieving a balance between artistic aspirations and a form suitable for practical performance. With a duration of about 30 minutes, the work is of easy to medium difficulty, and is therefore extremely suitable for amateur choirs with orchestra. The Pastoral Mass is suitable for performance both at Christmas time and beyond.
