Johann Baptist Wanhal
Missa in Bb Nokki 55
Wanhal ?
Nokki 55
Weinmann deest
This is a missa brevis that sets both the
Gloria and Credo as single movements and with telescoped text. The
brevity and sparseness of the movement does not easily allow for
significant markers for or against Wanhal’s authorship. The use of
clarinets (which are most likely too elaborate to have begun life as
oboe parts) is suspicious, but these parts may be a later addition.
