Navigation etc.

The I-Vc Torr manuscript score linked above is dated after Pescetti's death, so probably not an autograph manuscript, and it gives piano as an option. The Peter August manuscript score linked above is earlier, and does not give piano as an option. Therefore, this page is tagged for harpsichord only.
