• Based on the Urtext of the new revised volume of the G. Henle Complete Edition “Works of Joseph Haydn”
• Vocal text in Latin

The “Missa Cellensis”, composed in 1782, is better known as the “Mass for Mariazell”, in reference to the pilgrimage site of Mariazell in Styria (Austria), where it was performed.

Due to the revision of the respective Complete Edition volume published by G. Henle Verlag, it became necessary to adapt the performance material, published by Bärenreiter, accordingly. This primarily concerned the instrumental parts but also the piano reduction, though to a lesser extent. Moreover, a performing edition of the full score with the current musical text is available for the first time.
