An Altus partbook from a set originally of four volumes. Copied by a single scribe. Copied in Florence (BrowC); not of Florentine origin, conceivably written in France (Rifkin, based on format, gathering structure, and script). The partbooks were probably the gift of the Florentine Rinuccini to Filippo Strozzi, nephew by marriage to Pope Leo X (BrowC).
