General Description

Choirbook. Between c. 1570 and 2003 the book was divided into two manuscripts (Ms 2: 1-67, 217-234, 243-300; Ms. 3: 68-217, 235-242). In 2002 the 2 books were re-united into a single 300-folio volume. 2 bifolios (58-61) now form E-Bbc M1167; the final folio (300) is missing. Copied by a single scribe, who also wrote most of SevC 5-5-20 (Charles Manns). Probably copied in Seville or Toledo; though most recently Ros-Fabregas has argued for the ms being compiled in Tarazona.

Foliation

Original ink foliation on upper right rectos, i-lvii; lxii-ccc (many original numbers following 'lxvii' crossed out or altered by later hands in unsuccessful attempts to produce consistent foliation). Modern pencil foliation, 1-130, on lower right rectos of what was TZ 2 (folio between 42/43 first numbered '47,' later altered to '41a'); and I + 1-89; 100-176 ('90-99' omitted) on what was TZ 3; also a second modern pencil foliation, 1-167, on lower right rectos of ex-TZ 3.

Following re-binding into one volume, yet another pencil foliation has been added in lower right rectos, re-using the TZ 2 foliation up to fol. 65 (including 47bis), and running to 297.
