Nokki 54

Autenticity: Possibly Authentic

There are some suspicious aspects to this composition. First of all, the decision to set a single-movement Credo in a work with a three-movement Gloria would be rather unusual for a Viennese composer, who usually set the Et incarnatus as a separate movement in all but the smallest works. Stranger still is the tri-partition of the Kyrie, where the Kyrie I almost works as a slow introduction to the Christe. Despite this, it is not possible at present to wholly reject the idea that this might plausibly have been an experiment.
