The inner back cover has a second title page (with date) of this Credo: Nro. II | Credo à 2 Cori | obligati | di Giovan Disma Zelenka | à Dresda | 1724. 2 Februa:
This score has signs of reworking which was undertaken in or after 1726. Additions are made to the parts for violins 1 and 2, “Senza Organo’ is obliterated (p. 19), and additional figuring is given throughout.
Kept with the score are two labels which correspond with the catalogues of 1765 and c1784.

At the conclusion of the text of the Credo (‘Qui propter nos homines, et propter nostram salutem descendit de caelis’) is this remark in Zelenka’s hand: NB: Symph [ink blot obliterates da?] Capo. That is, the opening Symphonia of 12 bars was to be repeated before the text: Et incarnatus est.
The Dresden Diarium Missionis entry of 2.2.1724 (Purification BVM) reported that Zelenka and the royal musicians added lustre to the sung mass. (‘Habui Cantatum, quod solennius cum Regiis Musicis fecit D. Zelenka’). See also Zelenka’s Gloria setting dated on this same day: III/Z/10/3.
See Zelenka-Dokumentation, 289, ZWV 32.
