Summary of This Score
"Striving for the highest in art": this phrase, which Schubert addressed to the publisher Schott in 1828 regarding his Mass in A-flat major, resonates equally as an artistic credo for his Mass in E-flat major. Written the same year, this last great mass belongs to the composer's period of full maturity, with musical ambition and expressive intensity that go beyond mere liturgical function.
The first performance took place in October 1829, so Schubert did not hear it during his lifetime, giving the work a special place in his catalog. This edition meets an obvious need in the Breitkopf & Härtel program: to offer a solid, clear, and reliable source-critical version, up to the expectations of performers and conductors seeking a precise working score.
Thanks to the work of Peter Jost, this publication provides a carefully crafted and coherent musical text, designed to support both rehearsal preparation and concert performance. An essential score for musicians wishing to approach Schubert in an Urtext edition, prioritizing readability and respect for the musical material.
