The composer uniquely succeeds in exploring faith through the lens of music. in doing so, he ventures into extreme forms of expression, which caused some disgruntlement among the musicians at rehearsals for the premiere in November 1868. in subsequent years, however, the work has gradually become more accepted, and today presents a highly appealing challenge to advanced choirs. The Carus edition presents the Mass in F Minor as the final 1893 version based on the autograph and the surviving copies from the copyist.
