Missa in B-flat major K. 275 (272b) (Vocal score)

Description

The Missa in B-flat major K. 275 was composed in 1777. Following the tradition of the “Missa brevis”, the movements are short and in textually abundant movements such as the “Credo”, different text passages are sung simultaneously. The orchestration is also reduced accordingly.

The vocal score of this frequently performed mass replaces the previous edition (BA05344-90). Inaccuracies have been removed. While containing all the essentials, the piano part is now more spaciously presented, making it more accessible to non-professional musicians.

Although revisions have been made, this new vocal score remains compatible with the previous one, so that it is not a problem if some choir members use the new score and others still use the old one. The orchestral parts will continue to be available under BA05344.
