    <value>Draft for an insertion into the 1737 performance of Esther, comprising a newly composed recitative for B ("Israelite"), bc, and the ritornello for an aria taken from Atalanta (1736), for B, vl1/ob1-2, vl2, vla, b.
Single leaf, the draft for Esther written on page 68 in 1737, and the sketches written on page 67 in 1748.
Thomas Rheinhold (B) sang the aria "Sol provi contenti" in Atalanta, and Haman in the 1737 performance of Esther. This insertion was probably never used.
Holograph manuscript in ink.
Watermark: "LVG" below fleur de lis over Strasbourg bend; countermark: "IV" (Burrows C*70)
