RISM Description

RISM BIV/3: 16. Jh.; 456 Blätter Papier, 495 x 340 mm. Moderne Foliierung von f. 1-456 (jedes 10. Blatt mit Bleistift bezeichnet); originale Foliierung von A I-XX bis Z IV (mit vielen Lücken).

Dieses Graduale wurde auf Kosten von Jan Biskup, Bürger der Stadt Hradec Králové (Königgrätz) und geboren in Nové Město nad Metují (Neustadt, nordöstlich von Königgrätz), wahrscheinlich für die Gesangsbruderschaft in Nové Město geschrieben und illuminiert. 1870 wurde dann die Handschrift der Universitätsbibliothek Prag geschenkt. Mehrstimmig sind nur einige Ordinariumssätze. Inhaltlich ist die Handschrift mit dem Graduale CS-HK II A 13a/b verwandt.

Inhalt: Alle Texte sind tschech.: Ordinarium und Proprium.
