    Does anyone know if the sheet music for Horst Buchholz's Mass of Saint Francis is available online? I know the recording is on the Adoremus hymnal site, but I can't find the music anywhere. Also, is the music Creative Commons? I would like to print some of it in our worship aids, if possible. Thanks!

    If you could ask him, that would be great. All I need to print is the memorial acclamation, but I want to make sure he's OK with it first. Thanks!

    Herr Buchholz has granted permission to copy for congregational use. These are melody only versions that I have created for use in service bulletins since the resolution is not very good on the Adoremus website. The Gloria is missing since I have not yet had cause to write it out. Will update as time allows. Likewise I have not re-transcribed the organ part. That can be downloaded at the link above, albeit in poor resolution.

    If you prefer jpeg files for each part send me a PM.

    I am reviving this 4-year-old thread to see if anyone (@Earl_Grey) can confirm that what is said above about Horst Buchholz granting permission to copy this Mass for congregational use is still valid.

    Also, Adoremus seems to have moved the file on their server. Here is an updated link:
