General Description

The two Passions were copied by different but similar hands. A third scribe began copying the second Passion again on f. 25', but wrote only two voices of the first opening – presumably because he realised that this piece had already been copied in the manuscript. The second Passion is probably also by Robledo. Probably originated at the collegiate church of Santa Maria Mayor.
