This has been uploaded, but it's from Dominica Jubilate, which in itself is from the Geistliche Cantaten (Harmonischer Gottes-Dienst).

At the very least it should be moved to the Domenica Jubilate title, or possibly to the Harmonischer Gottes-Dienst page.

We have full scores uploaded to the Harmonischer Gottes-Dienst page, but this page might get very cluttered if each cantata also is separately uploaded there. On the other hand, we can use ===separate cantatas=== to put them on a different tab.

How should this be dealt with?

This is an increasingly difficult issue with the addition of the WIMA archive. I would recommend that it be moved to Domenica Jubilate, with the appropriate TWV number. My thinking right now is that we should limit large collections such as the Harmonischer Gottes-Dienst to to the various tab-formats (Full Scores, Parts, Vocal Scores, Arrangements and Transcriptions, Librettos) of the complete collection, or of multiple selections from it. Individual works within a large collection would qualify for their own separate page provided the work is significant enough in size to justify it (having a separate page each of the 48 Preludes and Fugues from Bach's WTC would generally not be a good idea IMO unless the number of files for some of the more popular ones became so unwieldy on the main page that one could actually make the case for setting up a page for certain individual numbers). The whole issue of collections - whether they were issued by the composer or later by someone else - is pretty complicated. More thought and discussion is needed and appreciated.

Maybe the Harmonischer Gottesdienst page could be split by making the Fortzetsung des Harmonisches Gottesdienstes independent − this could help reduce the problem...

IMHO "Dominica Jubilate" is not the title, but indicates the sunday for which the cantata was intended, am I wrong? The number for Diess ist der Gotteskinder Last should be TWV 1:356.
