Misc. Comments

Grove Music lists only one soprano soloist.

(Grove's source for voice range?- manuscript? letters? something? Grove is not itself a primary source but must refer to such :) - Schissel)

The score lists only une récitante, p.18. As to- Sarrazin fl.1920?- had published Le commandement unique in 1920 which seems? not to have had an earlier edition.
