Remarks
Score copy of two psalm settings. Blue-grey cover with title (hand of Zelenka): a | g# (upper left) : N 2: (upper right) | Confitebor tibi Dne | et | Beatus vir q’ timet D’ni | à 4 | C:A:T:B | Violin: 2 | Viola | e | Basso Conti: | del S. Novari.
Two labels corresponding to the Hofkirche catalogues of 1765 (damaged) and c1784 are kept with the score. The earlier fragment reads: Schranck No: II. N. 6. Fach 9. Lage | Confitebor | Beatus vir | à 4 voci | co’ VVni Viola e ... | Partitura | ... del Si ... Incipit 1: bar 1, vn. 1 (score). Incipit 2 missing. The second label must correspond with the entry in the missing Catalogo (c1784): Schranck No. II. |Lit: N. 4. Fach 10. Lage | Psalmi | Confitebor et Beatus vir | à 4 voci | co’ VVni Viola ed Org. | Partitura sola | del Sigr Novari. Incipits, bar 1 of the vn. 1 (both scores, with minor discrepancy for the incipit of Confitebor).
On the identification of this composer see the entry under Noack: II/N/6/6.
Vocal incipits in Zekenka-Dokumentation, 58, Nr. 130/132.
Stockigt, ‘The Vespers Psalms of Jan Dismas Zelenka’, App. 2, No. 2.
Concordance:
Although the instrumental incipits given above do not correspond with the vocal incipits given by Štefan, these settings come from the ‘Vesperae solennes [...] Auth: Novak’ held at the Metropolitan cathedral of Prague. ([968] Sign. 929).
NB: Zelenka’s Inventarium note: ‘P’.
