  • RISM has 2 entries for this, neither of which is an autograph manuscript. One gives the scoring as 5 voices, orchestra -- and although it does not list a chorus in the scoring, two movements are listed as choral. The other entry doesn't list a specific scoring, and only lists 2 vocal parts in the set. For the moment, this page will be tagged for voices generically (no number), with chorus and orchestra, but this is subject to correction, if a scan of the autograph manuscript is ever uploaded.
  • Both RISM entries give the title as Willkommen segensvolles Fest. However the title above matches the spelling used in the fair copy of the full score, the vocal parts, and the book of cantata texts published separately.
