Vol 4

Composers: Change "Josquin-1" to "Josquin/(La Rue)-1". Add footnote: "Credo of Missa Veci la danse (ff. 107;112), attributed here to Rener, is concordant with Credo of different Missa Veci la danse in LeipU 51, attributed to Obrecht. NoblO suggests that both attributions for Credo are probably erroneous."

Physical: Copied by a single scribe, who also wrote portions of JenaU 30 and JenaU 33.
