It's new to me too. But I pasted Rezitationston into google, and it
added musik, so I went with that (to Images). The first hit was
http://www.psalmlieder.de/psalmlieder/geschichte-der-psalmlieder/mittelalter/index.html
and then a long way down was a reference to
https://www.book-ebooks.com/products/reading-epub/product-id/4234582/title/Bachs%2BPassionen.html?firm=%22SCHOTT+MUSIC%2C+MAINZ%22

Then I thought to try English, and   reciting note   brought up
http://music.stackexchange.com/questions/42193/whats-this-horizontal-bar-notation-in-liturgy-called
(so Rudi, meet potofcoffee?)

And stackexchange wouldn't be stackexchange without a visitation from
the mavens:

This looks like a separate question to me, you can post as many
questions as you want. More critically, this is not an answer to your
original question. The idea here is to have specific questions and
(ranked) answers, not a flowing discussion thread
