Extra Information *Dies sind die heil'gen zehn Gebot' by Johann Gottfried Walther was once attributed to Pachelbel as P.50b and appeared in some manuscript copies of this collection. Walther may have based his setting on that of Pachelbel to an extent.

IMPORTANT. At least no.2 in Seiffert is not actually P.46 (of course, Seiffert nowhere claims it is; his edition predates any such cataloguing) - as three RISM references that describe P.46's counterpoint, which is rather different from that in Seiffert's example, demonstrate - and it's wholly possible that some or all of the rest of these are also not what we are presently linking them to. No.2 is a different setting of Wie schön, either with a different P-cat# or by a different composer.
