Hieronymus Mango
Missa in D Nokki spurious 3
Wanhal ?
Nokki spurious 3
Weinmann XIX:D9
Authenticity: Spurious Attribution (Probably by Hieronymus Mango)
A signature in the hand of the Italio-Bavarian composer Hieronymus Mango exists for this work, and most surviving copies are also credited to him. Whilst the two manuscript copies attributed to Wanhal as geographically disparate enough to suggest that there must have been a branch of transmission that attributed the work to Wanhal, there is little reason to question the prevalent attribution.
One should, however, note that the work seems to have existed in a copy misattributed to Franz Xaver Schlecht at the time Mango's copy was finished. It is beyond the scope of this catalogue to finally decide authorship between the two, but this might suggest that Mango's surviving autograph is not the oldest version of the piece.
