The 17th Century composer, Samuel Capricornus, was the author of a number of pious works, among them this Passion music Ein Lammlein for two sopranos, four viols (two trebles, tenor, and bass) and figured basso continuo. His music was highly praised by his contemporary Heinrich Schutz: edited by David Fenton, Margaret Panofsky, and Kent Underwood. (on CD: Teares of the Muses: 2011) B058: Score and Parts.
