COVER: An illustration of p. 44 from the autograph manuscript for J.
A. Sheibe's Passionscantate (1768) (Royal Library, Copenhagen,
Gieddes Samling, XI, 24). It shows a highly dramatic recitative
(`the curtain is torn and the holy flame penetrates the abominable
darkness'). At first sight the manuscript seems easy to read;
however, Scheibe's notational practice in terms of accidentals
creates problems for the modern editor. Scheibe wrote extensively on
the function of recitative, and especially on the subtle distinction
between declamation and recitative. Peter Hauge
