For comparison, I am examining settings of this text by other roughly contemporaneous composers. I am familiar with the settings by Seth Calvisius (1615, 4+4vv), J.H. Schein (1623, 5vv+bc), Heinrich Schütz (an internal section of the <i>Musikalische Exequien</i>, 1636), and J.M. Bach (late 17th c., 5vv+bc). I am sure that there are more settings of this text out there, and that is the purpose of this query. Are you familiar with any other settings of this text from approximately 1580 to 1680? I am also interested in Latin settings of the same text (<i>Dies annorum nostrorum...</i>).</div><div><br></div><div>Regards,</div><div><br></div><div>Benjamin Dobbs</div><div>Doctoral Teaching Fellow in Music Theory</div><div>University of North Texas</div><div><br></div><div>benjamindobbs@my.unt.edu</div><div><br></div></div>
