The Mass No. 13 in B-flat major, Hob. XXII/13, was composed by Joseph Haydn in 1801.[1] It is known as the Schöpfungsmesse or Creation Mass because of the words "qui tollis peccata mundi" in the Gloria. He recycled music from Adam and Eve's final duet in The Creation,[2] a fact which scandalized Empress Maria Theresa so much that she ordered Haydn to recompose that passage for her own copy.[3]
The recurrent motif in measure 51 of the Gloria is identical to the solo soprano/tenor motif in measure 13 of "Der Herr ist Groß" from Haydn's "Die Schöpfung".
The work was first performed on 13 September 1801.[4] It consists of six movements:
- Kyrie, Adagio, B-flat major, 3/4
- Kyrie, Allegro moderato, B-flat major, 6/8
- Gloria, Allegro, B-flat major, alla breve
- Qui tollis, Adagio, E-flat major, 3/4
- Quoniam tu solus sanctus, Molto vivace, B-flat major, common time
- In gloria Dei Patris, Presto, B-flat major, common time
- Credo, Vivace, B-flat major, common time
- Et incarnatus est, Adagio, G major, 3/4
- Et resurrexit, Allegro, B-flat major, common time
- Et vitum venturi, Più Allegro, B-flat major, common time
- Sanctus, Adagio, B-flat major, common time
- Pleni sunt coeli, Allegro, B-flat major, common time
- Benedictus, Allegretto, E-flat major, 6/8
- Agnus Dei, Adagio, G major, 3/4
- Dona nobis pacem, Allegro moderato, B-flat major, alla breve
