Extra info
The preliminary edition was composed in 1976. Later, the work has two parallel versions: 1978-98 (for tenor and piano, with reducing №№3,4,5,8), and this one (1988).
The author admits reducing No. 3 also in the 1988 edition. In this case, and in the absence of a harpsichord, the pianist plays the last phrase of the harpsichord on the piano. No. 4 can be performed as a separate organ piece. It is possible to add improvisation on a tambourine or a Provencal drum in the piano part in No. 1.
Most of the revision was done in 1987; after the performance, the author introduced optional No. 3 into it, which explains the dating of the 1988 edition.
It is also possible to return to the very first edition of 1976 - 8 numbers for voice and piano (the manuscript is in the author's archive).
