CAPRICCI (1624-1642)
Notes: The entire content of RECERCARI was appended to the second, 1626 edition of the CAPRICCI. Furthermore, one work from the 1624 edition, F 4.07, was removed. No changes of content were introduced in the subsequent editions of 1628 and 1642, although the later editions differ in small details; see Darbellay (1988).
