Talk:Christus factus est
From ChoralWiki
OK, with the fuss I've made over page titles, maybe this it is not yet the time to bring this up agains. There are two similar texts, one a gradual, and one an antiphon. The text presently on the page is the gradual. Edition 1240 is a text which correctly links to this page; edition 2203 is the antiphon, and should not.

Hi, Thanks for pointing this out! in this case, they should probably be on the same page, with an explanation which clearly points out the difference. From what I can gather, the antiphon is merely the first two lines of the gradual (or line and a half). As such, it appears to be a subset (for the purpose of translation).
Yes, you're right. I got started thinking about it; started organizing it, and then got called away, and saved my work in a hurry, before I had a chance to fully check my facts, and frame my answer. Upon checking, I find out that the words are the same, but they are used differently, and I concede do belong on the same page after all.
I revised the translation, and placed the settings I could identify in the section in which they seemed to belong. Those I have not yet determined which is which, I left near the top of the page.
The Cannicciari setting is ambiguous, and based only on the absence of a double bar between measures 10 and 11, I have listed it as a gradual. The key change in measure 10, from g minor to G major, however, leads me to suspect that this may actually be an antiphon, and that the editor overlooked, or omitted, a double bar present in the source.
