RISM has 4 entries for this work, none of which are an autograph manuscript. Two list 4 solo voices but no chorus; one lists 4 solo voices with chorus, and the last has no scoring but labels some of the movements as choral. As to the orchestra, two list strings and continuo (no winds), one lists orchestra with 2 oboes, and the other does not give a scoring. For the moment, this page is tagged for 4 solo voices, mixed chorus, and orchestra, but this is subject to correction, should IMSLP ever get a scan of the autograph manuscript.
