This work has been misattributed.
See notes for details and correct composer below.

Number of voices: 4vv Voicings: SATB or ATBB
Genre: Sacred, Motet, Gradual

First published: 1840 in Raccolta di mottetti a quattro voci (Pietro Alfieri), no. 12

Description: Composed by Baldassare Sartori in 1705. Error introduced by Alfieri and promulgated by Petti & Rutter. There are a handful of clearly labelled sources from the 18th century, one of which (I-Rli P.25) mentions that Sartori is caricaturing Anerio hence Alfieri's confusion. The aforementioned editors also ironed out many of the original accidentals in an effort to make the piece sound less baroque. Tch! Graduale, Missa Vespertina In Cena Domini. Graduale, In Exaltatione Sanctae Crucis
