(Mass of the Decased)
The Mass that we are publishing now could be a compendium of two styles: some parts, such as the 'Introito,' the 'Gradual,' the 'Sanctus,' the 'Agnus,' or the 'Comunión' are clearly polychoir, at times homophonic and at times in counterpoint, while other parts such as the 'Sequentia' and the 'Motete' are much more concertante.
The manuscript is located in the Music Section of the Library of Catalonia, catalogued as sig. M 734/8. There are 11 240x183-mm notebooks containing the separated parts 1st Soprano choir, 1st Alto choir, 1st Tenor choir, 1st Bass choir, 2nd Soprano choir, 2nd Alto choir, 2nd Tenor choir, 2nd Bass choir, 1st Violin, 2nd Violin, Accomp. continuo.
