Mozart's Missa Brevis was written in 1774 and is divided into six short movements, corresponding to the standard sections of the Mass. Richard Maunder has provided appropriate plainsong intonations for the Gloria and Credo, as well as a playable keyboard reduction, and the work's scoring-for SATB soloists, SATB chorus, and chamber ensemble-and overall compactness make it ideal for performance in a liturgical context as well as in the concert hall.
Complete orchestral and vocal material is available on hire/rental, and the full score contains a detailed Preface and Critical Commentary.

Composed by: Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
