"Rossini's manuscript (in: Péchés de vieillesse, Vol. 11, No. 8) is entitled "Il candore in fuga", meaning "Purity in fugue". Given Rossini's love for wordplay, it can also be translated as "Innocence fleeing" — perhaps suggesting that the music escapes the dry conventions of academic counterpoint. The original composition has no text, and there is no evidence of a performance during Rossini's lifetime. Today, it is usually performed as a vocalise or on the word "Amen". The text of Psalm 98 has been underlayed by Ullrich Köthe."
