Misc. Comments

Section 12 is for SATTB solo, implying that there is a non-solo - ie choral - component; RISM seems to confirm this. Some other versions listed at RISM (possibly different settings of the Psalm, though in the same key) require orchestra.

Composed 1794–1796, but seems not to have been published until his complete choral works for the Sing.-zu-Berlin were published in 1839...
