The edition of TWV 1:358 which I uploaded recently has been incorrectly recategorised as a 'vocal score'. It isn't. It's an arrangement by the composer of a lost original. (Any vocal score would have included the instrumental parts which have been lost). Could this please be reverted to my original categorisation as an arrangement please.

So its not a part of the original setting then?

It's an arrangement by Telemann of a lost original. The instrumental parts are lost. The original may have had a different introduction and conclusion. He has reduced it for voice and continuo alone. So yes the arias were part of the original, but in a more elaborate form.
