automela and prosomia

[JohnvanderHoek]

Dear colleagues,

Has anyone made a catalogue of the sources of the texts of the various
automela and prosomia? Some are clearly from the Anastasimatarion, but
many are from the various volumes of the Menaia/Triodion/Pentekostarion.
I note that the usual Irmologions do not provide this information. But there
may be some very experienced psaltes who know the answer to this query.

Regards, John

I started such a catalogue in 2001 after receiving a copy of Fr Seraphim Dedes' Original Melodies, although my catalogue is incomplete. I've attached it to this post as a starting point for any further exploration into this topic.
