Reports are given almost annually in the Dresden Diarium Missionis and in the annual letters of music being sung at the Holy Sepulchre erected in Dresden’s royal chapel during Holy Week. For example, in 1713 the Diarium report stated that on Holy Saturday (15 April), music was performed at the Sepulchre. (‘Hora 7. facta est musica ad sepulchrum ...’). The music sung on these occasions is not known.
Over time, both the apparatus itself and the music performed there increased in magnificence.
