, jan, dismas, zelenka, score, sheetmusic, zwv, 14 Urtext score to Zelenka s Missa Sancti Josephi, ,Z. 14, , one of Zelenka s larger, festive and more extravagant settings, with trumpets and timpani. Composed in 173132, the nucleus of the instrumentation consists of two groups of string instruments: 2 violins, viola (occasionally 2 violas), and basso continuo. The two violins were frequently doubled with oboes. On high feast days, a trumpet choir was added that consisted of 2, 3, or 4 trumpets, in Zelenkas works always tuned in D, and timpani. The Missa Sancti Josephi , Z. 14, has only been passed on in Zelenkas autograph score, which is badly damaged but can be reconstructed with a little effort. No title page has been preserved, but from Zelenkas handwritten catalogue of works that were performed in church services, which he had kept since 1726, it is possible to identify the title clearly.
