With over six hundred songs ( Lieder.) to his name, Franz Schubert was one fo the most prolific and gifted composers of the genre who ever lived. His wonderful sense of beautiful melody pervades much of his music--symphonic, stage and opera, choral, chamber, and piano solos and duets. A devout Catholic and former Vienna Boys Choir singer, he composed six Latin settings of the Mass as well as settings of the Salve Regina, Tantum Ergo., and numerous other works. Schubert's Antiphons for Palm Sunday., Opus 113, are a set of four easy liturgical motets for a cappella .choir. A singable English translation is provided with the original Latin. The four Gregorian chant compositions for the same Sunday are also provided in Latin and English. Hosanna Filio David .is sung for the blessing of the palms. The responsory In Monte Oliveti .can be sung between the Epistle reading and the Gospel, followed by Pueri Hebraeorum .for the distribution of the palms and Cum Angelis. for the procession of the palms.--Dr. William Tortolano.

To strive for the highest in art - these are the words with which Franz Schubert announced his A flat major Mass in 1828, a work which he designated as Missa solemnis in his autograph. Alone the genesis of the work shows the importance which the composer placed on this work. Schubert wrote the score between 1819 and 1822, an unusually long period of time for him. He later fundamentally revised the mass when he applied for the post of Vice Court Kapellmeister in Vienna, which he did not obtain. After this disappointment, he rejected his original intent of dedicating the mass to the Emperor or Empress. Thanks to Peter Jost's Breitkopf Urtext edition, Schubert's Missa solemnis once again adds its luster to the publisher's catalogue: Breitkopf & Hartel published its final version in the Schubert Gesamtausgabe in 1887. Previously Jost produced an equally exemplarily prepared edition of Schubert's E flat major Mass D 950.Wie immer bei Breitkopf ist das Satzbild der Neuausgabe der Zweitfassung in der Gestalt vorbildlich. (Goede, Kirchenmusikfuhrer)Eine Ausgabe, die hochsten wissenschaftlichen Anspruch mit bester Praktikabilitat ganz selbstverstandlich verbindet. (Chor aktuell).

Die Marcellinus-Messe entstand als Auftragskomposition des Mannerchores Gesellschaft der Freunde 1856 Seligenstadt. Gemeinsames Ziel der Auftraggeber und des Komponisten war, zeitgenossische geistliche Musik, die auch fur einen Laienchor a cappella realisierbar ist, zu schaffen. Wert gelegt wurde auf die Verwendung der deutschen Sprache, da es neben der beruhmten Schubertmesse kaum Alternativen gibt. Die Urauffuhrung fand im Festgottesdienst zur Eroffnung der Seligenstadter Wallfahrt 2013 statt.
