An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

The "Credo" is often omitted, but these movements may be included: * Kyrie * Gloria * Credo * Sanctus and Benedictus * Agnus Dei Note that although the Sanctus and Benedictus form a single part of the liturgical Mass, composers often choose to set this as two (or more) musical parts. The simultaneous recitation of different sections of long texts in various voices is a feature of some missae breves. This is especially characteristic of Austrian masses which usually include the Credo; this technique is applied to the Gloria as well.

  • The "Credo" is often omitted, but these movements may be included: * Kyrie * Gloria * Credo * Sanctus and Benedictus * Agnus Dei Note that although the Sanctus and Benedictus form a single part of the liturgical Mass, composers often choose to set this as two (or more) musical parts. The simultaneous recitation of different sections of long texts in various voices is a feature of some missae breves. This is especially characteristic of Austrian masses which usually include the Credo; this technique is applied to the Gloria as well. The Lutheran missa brevis often consists of either a Kyrie/Gloria (as in J. S. Bach's four missae breves) or a Sanctus/(Benedictus)/Agnus (as in Brahms' Missa canonica), reflecting the widespread practice of mixing settings. Mozart also composed a missa longa (the opposite of a missa brevis) which simply takes more time to perform, and is more elaborate. A messe basse is simply a "Low Mass", which may be entirely spoken in a low voice to the accompaniment of music. It is the equivalent of the Deutsche Singmesse. Fauré's Messe basse and Schubert's Deutsche Messe, D. 872, are famous examples. Notable examples of the missa brevis form are by composers such as: * Johann Sebastian Bach * Richard Rodney Bennett * Lennox Berkeley * Leonard Bernstein * Benjamin Britten * Gabriel Fauré * Joseph Haydn (the Missa Brevis in F and the Missa brevis Sancti Joannis de Deo) * Michael Haydn * Zoltán Kodály * Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (K. 49, K. 65, K. 140, K. 192, K. 194, K. 220, K. 275) * Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina * Stephen Paulus * William Walton
