Description: The source is marked for cornets, violin, trombones and continuo, but underlay is provided for all the instrumental parts, apart from the continuo. It could therefore be sung as an 18-part motet, with voicing SSATT.SATTB.SATB.SATB, but with some very high soprano notes and some very low bass notes.
