14 Masses (1 incomplete)
(A. Agrícola)-1, Brumel-3, (Compère-Josquin)-1, (Isaac)-1 + 1 Credo*, (Josquin)-1, (Obrecht)-1, (Weerbecke)-1, anon-5*
*The Credo (and only the Credo) of the anonymous Mass on ff. 78-87 is attributed to "Yzaac" in VienNB 1783. This Credo, which is based on the secular melody "Tmeiskin was jonck," appears in VienNB 1783 as part of a different Mass whose other four movements are attributed to Brumel. The movements by Brumel are unrelated to the ones which appear with the "Credo Tmeiskin" in JenaU 31.
