XVIe s. (1509), 139 ff. Papier, 210 x 157 mm. Foliotation ancienne en haut à droite des ff.: 1-139. 1 ou plusieurs ff. mq à la fin du ms.
Ce ms. qui, dans les années 1550, a appartenu (comme le ms. G 20 de la même bibliothèque) à Raffaele Sozi, porte au f. 45v: «In Venetiis MCCCCCVIIII, die XXI junii Dominus Johannes Materanensis ad suam utilitatem scripsit.» et au f. 123: «1509 17 julii.». Le musicien inconnu Johannes Materanensis y a copié en 1509 à Venise quelques ouvrages théoriques, dont le Lucidarium de Marchetto da Padova aux ff. 5 à 45v et 47v-68; aux ff. 71 à 123, deux traités de notation proportionnelle illustrés de 73 exemples musicaux, le plus souvent à 2vx., quelques-uns à 3 et un seul à 4 (no 22, unicum de Busnois), généralement sans paroles et sans noms d'auteurs. Postérieurement, Raffaele Sozi a largement annoté les marges des traités et ajouté les exemples nos 1 et 24 à 26, parmi lesquels une Fuga (canon à plusieurs vx. no 25) qu'il date: 1552.
