Kalmus Classic Edition vocal soli parts and choral scores are available separately through Alfred Music K06497. The final movement, Cum Sancto Spiritu is Vivaldi's updated arrangement of Ruggieri's Gloria of 1708. Includes: Gloria in Excelsis, Et in Terra Pax, Laudamus Te, Gratias Agimus Tibi, Propter Magnam Gloriam, Domine Deus, Domine Fili Unigenite, Domine Deus, Agnus Dei, Qui Tollis, Qui Sedes ad Dexteram, Quoniam tu Solus Sanctus, and Cum Sancto Spiritu. Although they are now often performed at sacred events including Christmas, the Glorias remained in relative obscurity until a revival performance by Alfredo Casella during “Vivaldi Week” in Siena in 1939. Of the three recorded Glorias Vivaldi wrote, only two survive (RV 588 and RV 589), while RV 590 is presumably lost.
The most famous of several Vivaldi works entitled Gloria (RV 589), this edition by Clayton Westermann includes a short preface to explain performance practice. Stabat Mater ( which would become famous ), ending with the Gloria ( RV 589 ), which was soon to become Vivaldi's most popular piece of sacred music.
