RISM has 3 entries for this work, none of which are an autograph manuscript. There are varying voicings, so for the time being, this page is tagged for voices generically (no number or type), with mixed chorus and orchestra (although one RISM entry says strings and continuo only). Hopefully, at some point an autograph manuscript will be available, and the tag can be made more specific.
