CPDL #11976:   Sibelius 2

Editor: Jonathan Goodliffe (added 2006-07-11).   Score information: A4, 2 pages, 50 kbytes   Copyright: CPDL

Edition notes: Corrected version uploaded 2007-07-12: some revisions to how the words are set. Although this is stated to be a cancrizans canon in four voices the composer's few indications as to how the words should be set suggest strongly that the bass voice[s] was/were intended to join in the continuo part. So in this edition the original continuo line appears on two distinct staves, one showing the text which the composer appears to have intended to be sung by the bass voice[s] and the other showing the figured bass.
