Summary
Volume from a portion of a large collection of choral works by various composers in full score (MSS. Tenbury 391-408), belonging formerly to the Abbé Giuseppe Cecchi, who was possibly a near relative of Dominique Cecchi, a famous singer at the end of the 17th century. The compositions in this book are anynoymous, but they appear to be a set of twelve Lezzione by a single composer.
