The "Roman" cahiers for 1675

Aside from Circé, I have been unable to identify the individuals or religious establishments that commissioned works from Charpentier during 1675, although the chart of Guise activities suggests a few possibilities. By mid-summer he was apparently working on Mementote peccatores (H. 425) for the Jesuits. The works from the final six months of the year clearly were lost, and the autograph version of Mementote peccatores probably was among them.
