Copied by a single scribe. Copied in Turin or vicinity (CrawSC). Early (original?) owner was a certain Frater Brixianus Taparellus (or Laparellus), of Staffarda Cistercian abbey, near Saluzzo (inscription on new f. 40: 'Ex libris Fratris Brixiani Taparelli (Laparelli?) Religiosi Stapharde'). Robotti identifies him as Bersano Tapparelli, recorded as a monk there in the second half of the 16th century, rejecting the possibility that 'Brixianus' indicates an origin in Brescia (Brixia) where no Tapparelli family is known.

XVIe s. 101ff. Papier, 274 x 200 mm. Foliotation ancienne en haut des ff. ne tenant pas compte des 2 premiers ff. et foliotation moderne complète au bas des ff. Les lers et derniers ff. mq. Notation mesurée blanche. 9 portées par p.
Pour ce ms., destiné à un usage pratique, l'ex-libris du f. 38: «Ex libris fratris brixiani Laparelli Religiosi stapharde» peut indiquer qu'il aurait été, sinon compilé, du moins conservé à une époque indéterminée, soit à Brescia, soit à Bressanone (Brixen), tandis que «Stapharde» peut évoquer le village de Staffarda dans la province de Cuneo, ce qui pourrait suggérer que le recueil a été constitué par un moine piémontais. Le filigrane (très semblable à Briquet 13 ou 7) caractérise un papier utilisé à la cour de Savoie en 1489-1490. Certains traits, comme les arrangements strophiques des Magnificat, évoqueraient aussi Milan. On n'en ignore pas moins l'origine exacte du ms. qui a peut-être été donné à la Reale Bibi. en 1720 par Victor-Amédée II de Savoie en même temps que les autres livres de ses collections particulières.
Avec 8 messes, 2 fragments, 11 Magnificat, 14 motets et 14 chansons, le ms. conserve un répertoire des toutes premières années du XVIe s., date beaucoup plus vraisemblable que celle de c. 1550 suggérée par C. H. Illing pour le Magnificat de Juvenis (no 46)
