The “Missa brevis in F major” K. 192, which can be regarded as a pinnacle of Mozart’s early masses, has been nicknamed “Little Credo Mass” due to the Credo calls interspersed throughout the third movement.
The autograph of the mass is dated Salzburg, 24 June 1774. Mozart intended the mass to be used for Sundays and smaller church holiday services at the Salzburg Cathedral, the archives of which hold the authentic transcription of the parts with amendments made by Mozart.
The parts of the two clarions added by Mozart at a later time were apparently written in haste, as is evident from several harmonic progression errors (parallel fifths and parallel octaves). They were first evaluated in the “New Mozart Edition” (NMA) by Walter Senn and have been printed in this edition in smaller typeface.
