The setting of 'Veci la danse barbari' (the scribe wrote 'Vexilla danse barbari' in error) in this manuscript is the one in Canti B - and is also in the Segovia Codex where a different piece has been inventoried.

Error in discography corrected: Josquin's piece at f.19v, actually 'Bergerette savoysienne', incorrectly recorded as 'Psallite noe' by dittography with the piece by Nino le Petit a couple of folios later. (Additional dittography - Isaac's 'Benedictus' mis-titled for Josquin's 'Liber generationis', also corrected.)
