The "Samuel Scheidt Work Catalogue (SSWV)" reflects the current state of Scheidt scholarship. It describes all of Samuel Scheidt’s works which can be documented in prints and manuscripts, and provides musical incipits as well as notes on the composition process, the state of the sources and on the reception of the works in the 17th century. Thanks to its different indices, the book becomes an indispensable and easy-to-use tool for everyone who will be working on Scheidt and his music in the future.
