Mass movements

1714 [date of Gloria of this mass]

No score or performance materials (parts) for a Kyrie setting exist with this score of the Credo of Missa Judica me, ZWV 2, held by SLUB. The incipit given above from the Catalogo (1765) must be from the now-missing original version of the Kyrie.
Title page: Credo della Messa | Judica me, & discerne Causa mea &c: Psal: 42. | à 4 | Canto Alto Tenore Basso | Violini II, Viole II | Basso Continuo | Di Giovanni Disma | Zelenka Musico di Camara [sic] | di S: M: A Re di Polania | Ellett: di Saxonia.
Thus, the original settings of the Kyrie (and perhaps original settings of the Sanctus, and Agnus) of the first version of Zelenka’s Messa Judica me et discerne causum meam now are missing. On the revised sections of this mass (Kyrie, Sanctus, Agnus) see III/Z/12/6.
None of Zelenka‘s usual dedications appear with this score of the Credo.
In the later ‘Catalogo della Musica di Chiesa’ (c1784) the Gloria (No. 16: two scores with parts: III/Z/11/3), Kyrie (No. 17: parts only: III/Z/11/4), Credo (No. 17: score with parts (III/Z/11/4) and Sanctus (No 17: parts only: III/Z/11/4) are listed.
See Remarks for the previous listing (III/Z/10/3).
The elegance of the inscription of the title page of the Credo (Mus. 2358-D-34,2, which RISM states is in the hand of court copyist Lindner) ) suggests that this was a dedication copy.
