The list of contents shows the voices as specified by the composer for each song. Keys of the original set are given first, in italics. All publishers offer the keys listed for individual songs, except that those in square brackets are only available from Bärenreiter. The transpositions involve some orchestration adjustments because of instrument ranges.
Some scholars believe these songs to have been intended not as a cycle, but as freestanding individual songs.
