This new Mass provides the ultimate in flexibility, yet retains a wonderful musical unity that will enable your assembly to sing it with ease. Many options are provided to encourage your creativity in adapting the setting., yet the writing is straightforward and accessible to resources of every kind. Written for SAB choir, these settings provide both a substantial choral sound and greater accessibility to smaller parish choirs and ensembles. The Mass may even be sung by assembly and cantor alone. Mass of the Angels and Saints is wonderfully effective on piano with optional guitar and woodwinds as well as on organ with optional brass quartet and timpani. (The single keyboard part works on piano or organ.) Includes a penitential litany (with 9 sets of invocations), sprinkling song, Gloria, Alleluia and Lenten Gospel acclamations, general intercessions, sung Eucharistic Prayer III, and Lamb of God. Plus, the recording includes eight additional songs by Steven Janco.

Johann Michael Haydn's masses are masterpieces of their genre. Carus is publishing these important works in Urtext editions. Of the thirty masses, almost two thirds contain a saint's name as part of their title. The names relate to the dedications of monasteries or parish churches, name days, ordinations or consecrations, diocesan patron saints, or anniversaries. Three masses with the names of Archangels survive (Michael, Gabriel, and Raphael), all early compositions by Haydn in the concise Missa Brevis form. He probably composed the Michaelsmesse MH 12 in Vienna before 1758. This mass belongs to the festive type brevis et solemnis because of its scoring with two trumpets.
