Remarks
Bound autogr. score in 2 vols. The original 1723 score has numerous revisions made both late 1728 and early 1729. Zelenka transformed the original Kyrie/Gloria pair of 1723 into a Missa tota. Andrew Frampton (‘Jan Dismas Zelenka’s Missa Sancti Spiritus, ZWV 4) suggests that the ‘Et resurrexit’ and ‘Benedictus’ appear to be reworkings made early 1729 of movements from unidentified settings by Zelenka composed c1723-25.
Parts for the original version (see III/7/12/1) and for the revised version[s] are missing. The score copy made by Zelenka’s composition student Gottlob Harrer (see below: D-B, Sing-Akademie zu Berlin Notenarchiv - SA 691) appears to be based upon a now-missing set of parts which indicate an even later revision.
Cover label on vol. 1 (Mus. 2358-D-18,1) for the now-missing original parts (1723) as listed in the Hofkirche ‘Catalogo’ (c1784): Schranck No: III | Lit: Z. 12. Fach 6. Lage | No. 23. Kyrie e Gloria | à 4 voci (pencil: Missa S. Spiritus) | co’ VVni Viola ed Org. | Parti cav. senza Partitura | del Sigr. Zelencka. Incipit.
Three additional labels are kept inside the back cover.

In 1723 the Dresden Diarium Missionis reported that on Pentecost Sunday (16 May: also Feast of St John of Nepomuk, duplex II classis in the Jesuit calendar) the royal musicians performed the mass with intraden at 11 o’clock. (Cantatum hora 11. Fecerunt Regii Musici musicam cum intradis, quae toto triduo factae sunt ad Sacrum Cantatum). Perhaps this was the occasion when the Kyrie and Gloria of Zelenka’s Missa S. Spiritus was first heard (ZWV 4).
On this mass, see Zelenka-Dokumentation, 113, Nr. 16; 286, ZWV 4.
In the later ‘Catalogo della Musica di Chiesa ’ (c1784) score and parts are shown for the Kyrie, Gloria, Credo, Sanctus, and Agnus (III/Z/8/3). The scoring given for the Kyrie is: à 4 voci co’ VVni. Ob: Fl. Vla, Tromb: Timp. ed Org.’; for the remaining sections of the Mass: ‘à 4 voci co’ VVni. Ob: Vla, Corni, Trombe, Timp: ed Org.’ On the original set of parts for the Kyrie and Gloria (1723), see III/Z/12/1.
