The new edition is based on the traditional piano score by the composer and organist Ernst Friedrich Richter (1845), published by Breitkopf & Hartel Leipzig. The publisher commissioned Richter in accordance with Mendelssohn. The new edition brought the Richter score into line as much as possible (including specific dynamics and articulation marks) with the score of the Leipzig Mendelssohn Edition (ed. by Christian Martin Schmidt), along with the performance material derived from it. Richter's piano score was critically examined by Hellmut Dohnert, who made emendations wherever there were subtantial discrepancies in the score.

It may assumed that this Mass dates from the earlier part of Richter's career. The scoring is relatively light, and in its overall dimensions the C major Mass belongs to the category of the missa brevis rather than that of the cantata mass such as Richter often composed. Score and parts available separately - see item CA.4064800.

Franz Xaver Richter probably wrote his Missa in A, with the nickname Hyemalis (winter), between 1781 and 1783, during his tenure as Kapellmeister at the Strasbourg Cathedral. This peculiar epithet leads us to presume that the Mass was meant to be performed during a sacred service in a time period between Epiphany and the Sunday before Ash Wednesday (Quinquagesima). The present work, a first edition, is a Messe sollenne senza Trombe, in which Richter achieved a festive character with musical variety by means of a comparably modest ensemble. Score and part available separately - see item CA.2707100.

F. X. Richter, one of the foremost exponents of the Mannheimer School, was a prodigious and versatile composer whose instrumental output comprises about 70 symphonies, 6 harpsichord concertos, flute concertos, several string quartets, as well as trios, duets and solo pieces. His vocal compositions (almost exclusively sacred works) are equally numerous: an oratorio, more than 30 masses, 2 passions, about 50 motets, several cantatas, lamentations, a Te Deum and other pieces are known. Richter was also the author of a comprehensive theoretical work, a collection of essays with the title Harmonische Belehrungen oder grundliche Anweisung zu der mus. Ton-Kunst oder regularen Composition [Harmonic lessons or thorough instruction on the art of music or regular composition]. For flute duet or violin duet.
