URTEXT EDITION 

This is an urtext/critical/scholarly/scientific edition (or a simple re-engraving). Any commentary or critical apparatus, if protected by copyright, should not be included in the scan(s) available here.

In Canada, new editions/re-engravings of public domain works (when not including new original material) should be in the public domain due to failing to meet the threshold of originality. In most European Union countries, these editions (except new original material) are generally protected for no more than 25 years from publication (30 years in Poland), and only if the edition is published after the copyrights of the original creator(s) have expired. In the United States, copyright can only apply to new creative work, and the re-engraving of a public domain piece (not including new additions of creative material) should not qualify for a new copyright, despite copyright claims (which properly would only apply to new material).

You may need to check the publication date and details of the work's first publication in order to determine the work's copyright status, especially for the United States, as the copyright on the original work may not have expired.

Navigation etc.

  • The oboe part seems to be a later addition. To be noted that the oboe plays one tone higher, because is tuned in Kammerton whilst the strings (and the continuo) are in Chorton (see similar situations in Bach's first works, for instance). Also to be noted is the french clef used for the part, likely the easier one for an instrument player coming from France (where the hautbois was developed).
  • Neither the RISM record above (see link above, Manuscript Sources), nor this RISM link lists the oboe part, so this is tagged for just the soprano and string parts.

The instrumentation given on the two surviving manuscripts in S-Uu are "sop: solo è 4 strom:" (keyboard tablature score) and "Soprano solo Con quatre Viole" (parts, title page). The individual parts are labelled "violino, hautbois (discussed above), violetta, violatta 2da, viola IV (bass clef), continuo, and basso continuo.
