This volume of the Lasso Complete Edition was first published in 1900, apparently under unusual time pressure which resulted in a great number of sometimes harmless, and sometimes serious errors, as the editor now writes in his preface, looking back retrospectively. In this respect, the new edition which still modestly calls itself a second printing takes on a particular relevance. The newly engraved and carefully edited musical section is supplemented with extensive texts, many facsimile illustrations, a comprehensive Critical Report and three Appendices in which further pieces are included for which Lassos authorship is practically beyond doubt.
