    I recently did an abridged version of Mozart's Requiem in D minor (Introit, Offfertory, Dies Irae, Rex Tremendae, Confutatis, and Lacrimosa) and I got a lot of great feedback from it, so I would like to do something like it again. Does anyone have any idea of Good "Classical" masses to do for a Novus Ordo? A Missa Brevis would be good.

    We did Mozart's Spatzenmesse this past Sunday - that's pretty easy

    There have been several threads recently about orchestral masses. Bolded are ones done recently at Holy Family in Saint Louis Park.

    Here's my classical list so far:
    Coronation Mass (Mozart)...we're doing this one for Holy Family and are abridging the Benedictus considerably from its already-short-enough form.
    Sparrow Mass (Mozart)
    Missa Solemnis in C K337 (Mozart)
    Missa Brevis in D Major K194 (Mozart)
    Missa Sancti Nicolai (Haydn)
    Missa Sancti Gabrielis (Haydn)
    Kleine Orgelmesse (Haydn)
    Missa Sancti Raphaelis (M. Haydn—need to buy parts): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kgp4uU6YlRw&list=PLA43jlnnERCIO6aOrXKBtOdoqGqxi_90A&index=5
    Missa Sancti Leopoldi (M.Haydn): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m3-SL8Tkay4&list=PLA43jlnnERCIO6aOrXKBtOdoqGqxi_90A&index=28
    Missa Brevis in F Major (Haydn) – Beautiful!
    Requiem (Faure)...needs textual finagling to work but people love it.
    Mass No. 2 in G Major (Schubert)
    Missa Solemnis in D (Sussmayr)
    Lord Nelson Mass (Haydn)…Long Gloria!
    Hummel Bb or D Minor
