Missa in C Nokki dubious 2 [Weinmann XIX:C6]
Wanhal ?
Nokki dubious 2
Weinmann XIX:C6
Hob. XXII:C26
Dormann1986 I.4
Attribution: Highly Uncertain
This mass survives in a number of copies attributed to other composers, the most important being Franz Joseph Aumann, but also the Haydn brothers. The number of counterattributions make it impossible to include this work in the main catalogue, but this is not to say that it is not written by Wanhal. One does, in fact, find several (weak) stylistic traits in this that point towards Wanhal being the composer, such as a Domine Deus with a marked melisma on ‘Jesu Christe’, and the (somewhat unusually shaped) Mons Wanhali at the end of the Dona nobis fugue. One might, with some justice, say that this seems to be more in the style of Wanhal than some of the works where no other attribution exists, but the number of attributions to Aumann makes it impossible to ascribe this to Wanhal, unless it were to be shown that it was definitely not in his style.

The RISM entry attributes the work to Aumann, but this appears to be a modern attribution based on examinations of other sources rather than the source itself.
