With a duration of 15 minutes, the Missa secunda is suitable for concert performance or for use in church services. The scoring is flexible and structured in modules: there is a cantus firmus which can be sung by a choir, or by the congregation in unison in treble or bass range. * It is perfectly possible to achieve an expressive performance of this unison version with just organ accompaniment. * The Missa secunda can be expanded to a four-part setting. * A five-part performance can be achieved by the addition of an upper voice (children's choir or solo soprano). * In the full scoring the Missa secunda can be accompanied in ceremonial style by a wind quintet and timpani.
