Comments on notation:

The music is set out in an awkward way: the four voice parts simply run one after the next (discantus, tenor, altus, bassus) in such a way that it is impossible for them to be sung at the same time from the same copy.


Repertoire:

This edition contains only one piece: a four-voice setting in praise of “Agrippina urbs” (Cologne), which comes before the start of the play.
