Here, as also in his earlier Litte Credo Mass KV 192, Mozart made use of a church music device which can be traced back in south-German and Austrian church music to the beginning of the 18th century: frequent repetition of the opening words of the Credo. This presupposes that the setting of the words of the intonation Credo in unum Deum as part of an ensemble composition, which for centuries had been intoned in plainsong by the priest, had become liturgically acceptable. It was only a small and syntactically logical step for the word Credo to be repeated before the individual articles of belief, thus strengthening the declaration of faith. Score and parts available separately - see item CA.4061600.
