Physical description

4 parts

Components and notes

• According to Freeman (1992), four parts were extant in 1989: (1) A solo (Fluss Melk), one leaf, no. 3 and 5; (2) T solo (Austria), one bifolio, no. 5–6; (3) T coro, one leaf, no. 5; and (4) B solo (Melk), two leaves, no. 5–6. However, these parts are undiscoverable as of 2025-10. Thus, the only remaining source is a reprint of the first page of the A solo part (Freeman, 1992, p. 29, plate 5).
