Missa Cellensis
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Missa cellensis (lit. 'Mass for Zell', where "Zell" stands for Mariazell)[1] refers to two masses by Joseph Haydn:
- Cäcilien-Messe (St. Cecilia Mass), Hob. XXII:5, written in 1766, and after the score was lost to a fire, recomposed from memory in 1773.
- Mariazeller-Messe (Mass for Mariazell), Hob. XXII:8, composed in 1782
This article includes a list of general references, but it lacks sufficient corresponding inline citations. (August 2018) |
Both masses are in C major, and both were written for the Mariazell pilgrimage church in Styria.
