627 CRITICAL COMMENTARY TO NOS 15-21 15. Missa Le serviteur II Kyrie (Trent 89 ff. 153v-154r, unicum, DTȌ VII inventory no. 606). [Superius]; 84: this note and the double custos are given on a short end-of-stave extension. Contra; 13,2 & 44: ns / 72: b ind before 72,1. Tenor; 1, 13,3 & 24: ns / 73,1-2: the middle of this void lig is colored for no apparent reason / 75,4: ns / 78: 3 & 4 are sm sm. Underlay; ‘Kyrie’ and ‘Xpe’ are given at the start of each section, plus ‘eleyson’ at the end of each section. However, the presence of repeated notes at the same pitch (Tenor, 4-5, Superius 13, Tenor 30-31 & Superius 68-69) argue that at least threefold ‘Kyrie/Christe eleyson’ is needed in each section, plus extra repeats of some words. Accordingly, my texting sometimes uses the four-syllable ‘eleÿson’ and has multiple repeats in Kyrie I, at 30-37, at 68-72 and at the closing measures of Kyrie II. For those who do not like the note-splitting in this edition, I offer the following alternative which removes some of the split values. 1. At Tenor 1-2 sing the notes unsplit to ‘Kyrie e-‘ with the ‘e’ elided. 2. At Tenor 13, move ‘Kyri-‘ to the last two notes in the measure; in the Contra above omit the editorial ‘Kyrie’ and sing 13,3 to ‘e-‘. 3. At Tenor 24-25 sing the text elided instead of splitting the note.

Gloria (Trent 89 ff. 154v-156r, unicum, DTȌ VII inventory no. 607). [Superius]; 1: the intonation is supplied from Grad Pat f. 180r, & the m sign is om / 5: 1 uc / 34: ‘Duo’ ind in both voices / 52: ‘Duo’ rptd in Superius / 62-124: for these measures (which are at the start of a new page-opening) the b sig is om / 87: mid-stave direct given with clef change / 112: b ind before 110,1 / 114: clef change is at the start of a new stave / 142: ‘Duo’ ind in Contratenor only / 186,2: this note and the following rests are possibly written over an erasure. Contratenor; 1: 17-18: ns / 36,1-37,1: entered on a short end-of-stave extension / 52: at this section-opening the b sig is rptd in mid-stave but has been partially erased / 62-92: b sig om / 110: ns, and this lig (which descends an octave) is clumsily drawn / 178: m sign om, & ns / 182: 3 E. Tenor; 1: the m sign is given before the stave / 17-18 & 22: ns / 30,4: scribal corr from A / 62,74, 85 & 114: ns / 178-191: b sig om. Underlay; fully texted in the Superius, with sectional incipits for the lower voices. There are considerable differences between the Trent 89 texting and our underlay. These are as follows; 4-5: ‘pox hominibus’ under 4,2-5,3 / 6-9: the text here is entered with no regard for logical word placement / 12: ‘-mus’ under 11,7-12,2 / 13-15: ‘Benedicimus’ under 13,1-14,5 / 17-18: as at 6-9 / 18-20: ‘Glorificamus’ under 19,3-20,6 / 22-23: ‘agimus’ under 22,4-23,2 / 27: ‘gloriam’ under 29,1-3 & ‘tu-‘ under 31,4 / 28: ‘-am’ under 33,1 / 29-33: ed rpt of ‘propter…tuam’ needed in all voices / 34-39,1: as at 6-9 / 41-43: ‘omnipotens’ under 42,2-4 / 46-48: ‘Unigenite’ under 46,1-5 / 48-50: ‘Jhesu’ under 47,5-7 / 50-51: ‘Christe’ (given as ‘xpe’) under 49,4-50,1 / 52-54: ‘Deus’ under 53,6-54,1 / 55-56: ‘Dei’ under 56,2-3 / 57-58: ‘Filius’ under 57,2-58,1 / 58: © Robert J. Mitchell 2013 628 ‘Pa-‘ under 58,4 / 61: ‘-tris’ under 60,6-8 / 52-66: as at 6-9 / 69-74: ‘mundi’ under 71,1-3 / 78: ‘no-‘ under 79,1 / 87-104: ‘Qui tollis peccata mundi’ under 87-96 / 106-118: ‘suscipe…nostram’ under 97,1-104,1 / 106-110,1: ‘Qui sedes’ is given here, which cannot be underlaid in the edited version & has therefore been om. I propose that the Trent 89 texting here cannot be correct since - after ‘Qui sedes’ - 110-118 is left completely without text. / 133-135: ‘miserere’ under 134,1-135,1 / 137-141: ‘nobis’ under 138,1-3 / 142- 150: as at 6-9 / 155-158: ‘Domi-‘ under 155,1-3 / 160: ‘-nus’ under 159,2-4 / 161-168: as at 6-9 / 173-177: ‘Christe’ (given as ‘xpe’) under 174,2-175,2 / 178-180: as at 6-9 / 181: ed rpt of ‘Spiritu’ needed / 182-186: as at 6-9 / 188: ‘-men’ under 190,5-7 / 189-191: ed rpt of ‘Amen’ needed. Contratenor; 181-182: ed rpt of ‘Spiritu’ needed / 188-191: ed rpt of ‘Amen’ needed. Tenor; 189-191: ed rpt of ‘Amen’ needed. As in the Kyrie, I have split some notes to accommodate lower-voice texting. Should performers wish to do differently, I suggest the following alternative for removal of most split values. 1. Tenor at 17-18: sing these notes to ‘Glo-‘. 2. Tenor at 22: sing these notes to ‘a-‘. 3. Tenor at 62-77: sing these notes to ‘Qui tollis peccata’, with ‘-ca-‘ under 72,1 & ‘-ta’ at 74,1. Tenor at 85: sing this note to ‘-bis’. These alterations remove contextual sense from the words, but with editorially texted lower parts of this type this tends to be unavoidable. Credo (Trent 89 ff. 156v-158r, unicum, DTȌ VII inventory no. 608). [Superius]; 1: the intonation is supplied from LU 1997 p. 64, transposed a tone down / 35: ‘Duo’ ind in both voices / 49: ‘Duo’ rptd in Superius / 52, 1-2: these notes appear to be written over an erasure / 64: m sign om / 74: 2 b, ind before 73,1 / 109: this single br rest is uc / 139: ‘Duo’ ind in both voices / 155: 3 A (but since the A here creates a cambiata-like progression the need to emend it is debatable). Contratenor; 1: ns / 11: 2 E / 35-63: the lower Duo voice here is mistakenly entered as if it was part of the Tenor, but the error is corrected by the incipit ‘Genitum Con[traten]or at its start. This may have been written in at a later stage than the main copying. / 47,3-48,1: Trent 89 gives ligd sbr D sbr C / 71: Trent 89 gives sbr G sbr G instead of br G. Tenor; 1: m sign om / 16, 20 & 28: ns / 64, 68, 69 & 117: likewise / 176: m sign om, and this final section (‘Et vitam venturi’) directly follows the Tenor’s ‘Et incarnatus’ section. At the start of the final section the b sig is rptd in mid-stave. Underlay; fully texted in the Superius, with sectional incipits for the lower voices. This movement does not set the full Credo text; ‘Et ex Patre…vero’ is omitted at 35, and ‘Et iterum…mortuorum’ is omitted at 176. It does not seem possible to restore these passages by textual telescoping. As with the Gloria there are considerable differences between our underlay and the Trent 89 texting. These are as follows. Superius; 2-4: ‘omnipotentem’ under 2,5-4,1 / 5-6: ‘factorem’ under 5,2-6,3 / 6-7: ‘celi’ under 7,1-2 / 7: ‘et’ under 8,2 / 8: ‘ter-‘ under 8,5-6 / 10: ‘-re’ under 9,6 / 11-13: ‘visibilium’ under 11,1-5 / 13-16: ‘omnium’ under 14,1-2 / 16,2-18: here, the text seems to be entered with no regard for logical word placement / 19-20: ‘-lium’ under 19,5-20,1 / 23-24: ‘Dominum’ under 23,5-24,4 / 25-26: ‘Jhesum’ under 26,1-4 / 26-28: ‘Christum’ (given as ‘xpum’) under 27,4-28,1 / 30-33: ‘unigeni-‘ under 30,4-31,5 / 36: ‘non’ under 36,5 / 36-37: ‘factum’ under 38,2-4 / 37-42,1: as at 16-18 / 43-44: ‘omnia’ under 43,3-6 / 44-46: ‘facta’ under 44,5-45,1 / 49-50: ‘propter’ under 50,3-4 / 51-53: ‘homines’ under 52,1-5 / 55-56: ‘salutem’ under 55,5-8 / 57-58: ‘descendit’ under 56,5-58,1 / 58: ‘de’ under 58,5 / 59-60: ‘celis’ under 59,5-60,1 / 61-65: ‘Et incarnatus’ under 61-66,2 / 66: ‘est’ under 71,3-72,1 / 66-69: ‘de Spiritu’ under 73,1-76,1 / 71: ‘San-‘ (given as ‘Sanc-‘) under 79,2- 80,2 / 72: ‘-cto’ (given as ‘-to’) under 82,2-83,1 / 73-83: ed rpt of ‘de Spiritu Sancto’ needed / 85: an erased word is given here (‘tuos’?), and ‘ex’ is under 87,1 / 87-97: ‘Maria Virgine’ under 87,2-93,1 / 98-123: as at 16-18 / 124-136: the texting is compressed, which makes recordings of positioning here redundant / 141- 149: as at 16-18 / 151-153: ‘secundum’ under 151,1-152,3 / 154-158: ‘Scriptu-‘ under 153,3-154,2 / 167- 168: ‘in celum’ under 166,2-5 / 168-169: ‘sedet’ under 167,2-3 / 169: ‘ad’ under 168,2-3 / 170-172: ‘dexteram’ under 169,2-170,1 / 173: ‘Pa-‘ under 171,3 / 175: ‘-tris’ under 174,3-175,1 / 177-180: ‘venturi’ under 178,2-179,3 / 181-182: ‘seculi’ under 181,1-4 / 184: ‘-men’ under 186,4-187,1 / 185-187: ed rpt of © Robert J.
