RISM Description

RISM

XVe s. 81 ff. Papier, 150 x 115 mm. Foliotation moderne. Les ff. 31 à 33v sont blancs. Notation mesurée noire (Nos 6 et 18, notation mesurée blanche; no 16, notation grégorienne). 2 à 4 portées par p.

Ce ms., très probablement originaire de Vénétie, appartenait à Petrus de Fossis, maître de chapelle à St. Marc (de 1491 à 1527), qui le laissa au monastère de S. Salvatore à Venise. Il contient une majorité de laude en latin et en italien, dont 3 se retrouvent dans I-Vm145 (nos 2, 5, 7), les 2 mss. présentant beaucoup de similitudes. Outre les pièces musicales, on y trouve des ouvrages théoriques qui sont décrits par P. Fischer (cf. Bibliogr.). Monterosso en situe la copie entre 1440 et 1460.

Editions

Toutes les pièces (sauf le nos 5, 6, 12, 16 et 17) ont été publiées dans CattinLEC. Voir en outre à chaque pièce.
