Among surviving performance parts from this era, these parts provide a rare example of performance materials for solo voices being separate from the usual choral parts that include the solo vocal passages as well. The solo vocal parts (they might replace an earlier set) do not include choruses. Parts for brass and timpani are in a different hand.
Parts (13 vocal; 22 instrumental): Canto solo (only the solo movements Christe eleison and Laudamus te are given); Alto solo (only the solo movements Christe and Dominus Deus are given); Tenore solo (only the solo movement Dominus Deus is given) ; Basso solo (only the solo movements Christe eleison and Dominus Deus are given) ; Canto; Alto; Tenore; Basso; Canto Rip[ien]o; Contr’alto Ripo; Tenore Ripo; Basso Ripo; Basso Ripo; Violino Primo; Violino Primo; Violino Primo; Violino Secondo; Violino Secondo; Violino Secondo; Viola; Viola; Violoncello Cont.nuo; Violoncello Rip.; Violoncello Rip.o | Contrabasso; Tiorba [figured]; Organo [figured]; Oboe Primo; Oboe secondo ; Fagotto; Fagotto; Corno di Caccia Po; Corno di Caccia 2o; Tromba; 1a; Tromba 2a; Timpani.

I am very grateful to Bruno Musumeci who advises that a copy of this work is held in the Civico Museo Bibliografico Musicale di Bologna.
