Commentary:

Prager Morgenpost 22/3/1862 published news that ‘Tomorrow on the third Lenten Sunday [Fastensonntag] will be given a performance in the Knights of the Cross Church [St Francis] of Caldara’s Mass in B-flat major with interpolations by M. Haydn and Brixi.’ No further details were given by this source. The composer ‘Brixi’ was most likely František Xaver Brixi.
