RISM Description

RISM

XVIe s. 53ff. + 1f. limin. Parchemin, 533 x 364 mm. Foliotation factice. Les ff. limin r-v, lv, 2, 3, 51v à 53v sont blancs. Notation mesurée blanche. 11 portées par p. Initiales et marges enluminées aux ff. 3v, 4, 17v, 18, 27v, 28, les autres petites capitales ornées en couleurs. Reliure du XVIIIe s.

Ms. d'une seule main. Une lettre de Carpentras, copiée en lettres d'or au f. 2v., sous les armes du pape Clément VII, précise que le ms. contient la version évisée des Lamentations que le compositeur dédie au pape Clément VII, n'ayant pas été satisfait à l'audition de ses Lamentations telles qu'il les avait composées auparavant pour Léon X, ce qui date cette nouvelle version, et aussi la copie, entre 1524 et 1530.

Editions

Toutes les Lamentations du ms. sont publiées in CMM 58, II d'après l'édition imprimée chez de Channey à Avignon en 1532 et qui représente la dernière version révisée par Carpentras.
