- Edition notes: The values of the notes (4/2 and 3/1) of the original printing were kept; the notes are transposed down a fourth according to rules of chiavette transposition. Because the pitch at Hassler's time was a semitone probably a whole tone higher than the modern pitch (a' = 440 Hz), the mass should be sung a cappella a whole tone higher. This edition is above all for an accompaniment with e. g. historic brass instruments (cornett for the Cantus, trombones for Altus, Tenor and Bassus). An edition down a third appears simultaneously to this edition (CPDL #26683). – Last corrections: 2012-08-17. MusicXML source file(s) in compressed .mxl format.
