Extra Information
|
RISM has 6 entries for this, one of which is an arranged excerpt. Of the remaining 5, none are an autograph manuscript. All list 4 solo voices of soprano, alto tenor, and bass. But 2 list a chorus, 2 don't. The fifth doesn't have a scoring, but lists some of the movements as "coro". For the orchestra, one lists strings only. Two entries list 2 oboe parts but one says they are "missing". Two don't specify the parts but one says some are missing. This page will be tagged for 4 voices, chorus and orchestra, but this is subject to correction should an autograph manuscript ever be scanned and uploaded.
