General Description

A single Tenor partbook. Main scribe was possibly Guillelmus Pallafoxius, whose name appears on recto of front flyleaf (variant scripts in main corpus may reflect evolution of one hand over extended period, or may be work of two scribes); last three pieces apparently slightly later additions by a different hand. Presumably copied in Saragossa. Early owner (possibly original owner and compiler) was Guillelmus Pallafoxius, whose name appears on front flyleaf.
