What are some important songs of Jan Dimas Zelenka?

Answer 1

Some of Zelenka's most notable works are his Missa Votiva [ZWV18], multiple settings of the Requiem Mass [ZWV45*, ZWV46, ZWV48, ZWV49], and his oratorien, such as Il Serpente di Bronzo and Gesu al Calvario. Other notable works include his six triosonaten and his drama, Sub Olea Pacis et Palma Virtutis.

*ZWV45 is most likely misattributed. Whilst parts of it are undeniably Zelenka's [especially the Sequentia], the rest was most likely written by Georg Pisendel and either added to the Dies Irae or simply attributed to Zelenka by mistake. The Introitus, Sanctus, Benedictus, and Agnus Dei are written very atypically to Zelenka's typical contrapunctal style.
