Volume 3 of the Complete Edition contains the Mass in A minor op. 197, which was the last work Rheinberger ever composed. The Mass was left unfinished, since he died while working on it. Only the Kyrie, Gloria and the Credo, through the et resurrexit were completed. However the remainder of the Credo has been preserved in the form of sketches. These are published in the present edition for the first time. In addition, the sketches were carefully completed and prepared for performance by the editor. This version is published in the appendix of this volume.

For lovers of romantic choral music this volume is a treasure trove. It contains the complete motets for mixed choir a cappella (with opus numbers) published by the Munich Court Composer. Among these works is the famous Abendlied in its original version, which he composed in his youth. The version with Latin text is also published, as well as the Motets op. 58 and 107 - until now the latter collections had yet to be published in new editions. This volume contains numerous facsimiles and historical information concerning the music.
