Each score bears the stamp: Sächs. Landesbibliothek. Depositum der Kath. Hofkirche. These works are in the hand of Zelenka’s copyist ZS O (Horn, ‘Die wichtigsten Schreiber’, 166). They are numbered here according to the number given at the head of each score. Almost all numbers are duplicated, giving a total of 20 masses including two masses previously attributed to Antonio Caldara and the Palestrina mass already listed in this Catalogo, Missa ‘Iste Confessore’, II/P/12/1. This entry therefore presents a total of 17 already-unlisted masses by Palestrina. Each score is bound with a marbled cover with label for title. Several have remarks in red pencil, possibly made by Anton Schubert. On the manuscript copies of Palestrina masses held by SLUB, see Horn (Hkm, 95–9). Horn devotes a chapter to Zelenka’s working of Palestrina’s Missa Nigra sum in Zelenka-Studien I, 352–9.
