| NOTES | The compilation of this manuscript is directly related to a payment made by the Procuratoria di San Marco to maestro di cappella Francesco Cavalli on 11 January 1671 [1670 more veneto]. I-Vas, Procuratori de supra, Chiesa, reg. 146, fol. 162v: ‘Adi, 11. Genaro, 1670 – Inoltre Hanno gli sudetti Ill[ustrissi]mi, et Ecc[ellentissi]mi Sig[no]ri Proc[urato]ri terminato; che de danari della Cassa della Chiesa sia pagata una poliza de lire trentaquatro soldi dicisette à D[omi]no Francesco Caletto detto Cavalli Maestro di Capella in sodisfatione della carta, ligatura, et copia della messa detta della caccia per l’anno corrente, giusto la sua poliza del giorno supradetto, alla qual s’habbia relatione, et sia.’ The copyist, Lorenzo (de’) Rossi, is unidentified in the document, but was charged by the maestro di cappella with the compilation of various manuscripts during this period, among them Choirbook 4. His name is indicated by the ‘R’ (‘Rossi’) on the recto of the first sheet. He is also the copyist of the two fragments recovered during restoration. A label attached to the front cover, probably by Matteo Tosi, bears the following annotation: ‘3 / MISSA / FERIAE QUINTAE / SEXAGESIMAE / R / Molto probabilmente del Rovetta’. Before restoration (2015), the manuscript showed evident signs of wear and tear along its right-hand edge, above all in the middle and in the lower corner. |

[Gloria in excelsis Deo] Et in terra pax hominibus bonae voluntatis: laudamus te, benedicimus te, adoramus te, glorificamus te, gratias agimus tibi propter magnam gloriam tuam, Domine Deus Rex caelestis, Deus Pater omnipotens, Domine Fili unigenite Iesu Christe, Domine Deus Agnus Dei Filius Patris, qui tollis peccata mundi, miserere nobis, qui tollis peccata mundi, suscipe deprecationem nostrum, qui sedes ad dexteram Patris, miserere nobis: quoniam tu solus sanctus, tu solus Dominus, tu solus altissimus Iesu Christe cum Santo Spiritu in gloria Dei Patris. Amen. [Credo in unum Deum] Patrem omnipotentem factorem caeli et terrae, visibilium omnium et invisibilium et in unum Dominum Iesum Christum Filium Dei unigenitum et ex Patre natum ante omnia saecula. Deum de Deo, lumen de lumine, Deum verum de Deo vero, genitum non factum consubstantialem Patri per quem omnia facta sunt. Qui propter nos homines et propter nostram salutem descendit de caelis et incarnatus est de Spiritu Sancto ex Maria Virgine et homo factus est. Crucifixus etiam pro nobis sub Pontio Pilato, passus et sepultus est. Et resurrexit tertia die secundum Scripturas et ascendit in caelum, sedet ad dexteram Patris. Et iterum venturus est cum gloria iudicare vivos et mortuos cuius regni non erit finis et in Spiritum Sanctum, Dominum et vivificantem qui ex Patre Filioque procedit, qui cum Patre et Filio simul adoratur et conglorificatur, qui locutus est per prophetas et unam sanctam catholicam et apostolicam ecclesiam. Confiteor unum baptisma in remissionem peccatorum et expecto resurrectionem mortuorum et vitam venturi saeculi. Amen. Sanctus, sanctus, sanctus Dominus Deus Sabaoth. Pleni sunt caeli et terra gloria tua. Hosanna in excelsis. Benedictus qui venit in nomine Domini. Hosanna in excelsis. Agnus Dei qui tollis peccata mundi, miserere nobis. Agnus Dei qui tollis peccata mundi, miserere nobis. Agnus Dei qui tollis peccata mundi, dona nobis pacem. |

| NOTES | Beginning around 1520, this mass was performed in St Mark’s on ‘Giovedì Grasso’ (Carnival). Locally, it was also known as the ‘messa della caccia’, a reference to civic ceremonial on Giovedì Grasso. The mass was copied from an earlier manuscript, now lost. The version transmitted in this manuscript partially differs from the Lyon 1532 edition. Attributed variously to Rosenmüller and Cavalli in the Notatori of Pietro Gradenigo (see Over, Notatori, p. 32). Attributed to Cavalli in Caffi, San Marco (1987 ed., p. 447). |

| NOTES | Two fragments of a single choirbook sheet, containing part of the Credo of an unidentified four-voice mass. Precisely when the parent manuscript was destroyed cannot be determined, though it may reasonably be assumed that this occurred in conjunction with or after the reform of musical ceremonial introduced under Baldassare Galuppi in 1766. |
