Scope and Contents

This is a different setting to that at MS.22010, folio 1.

It is not clear whether it is a partly scored setting for orchestra, or fully scored for strings, cornets and organ. A leaf is cut out after folio 17, damaging the endpaper. Folios 15 and 16, which are slightly smaller than the rest, are later additions.

Dates: 1st quarter of 20th century-3rd quarter of 20th century.
