It was only later that Schubert decided to emphasize the festive character of the mass through the use of brilliant trumpets and timpani; the original scoring is more sparse. The genuineness of the composer’s faith is particularly moving in this work, as is evident in the changes and omissions of the text in the Gloria and Credo sections. The demands on the choir, in particular in the high soprano, should not be underestimated despite the simple, riveting melodies and a clear structure of the movements.

The Carus Choir Coach offers choir singers the unique opportunity to study and learn their own, individual choral parts within the context of the sound of the entire choir and orchestra. For every vocal range a separate Audio CD or MP3 and download containing each choir part is available. The Carus Choir Coach is based on recorded interpretations by renowned artists who have performed the work from carefully prepared Carus Urtext editions. Each choir part is presented in three different versions:

- Original recording
- Coach: each voice part strongly emphasized, with the original recording sounding in the background
- Coach in slow mode: the tempo of the coach slows down to 70% of the original version – through this reduction passages can be learned more effectively.

Performers: Edith Lienbacher (soprano), Barbara Hölzl (alto), Alexander Kaimbacher (tenore), Anton Scharinger (basso) – Wiener Kammerchor, Wiener Orpheus Orchester – Johannes Prinz.
