Two flyleaves, taken from CH-Bu F.III.33 before 1975, containing portions of four Parisian organa tripla, known otherwise only for two voices. They had been discovered by Max Burckhardt (1910–1993) of the CH-Bu Handschriftenabteilung. See Arlt & Haas for a complete black-and-white facsimile (two pages photographed under natural light, two under uv light), a description, an inventory (below), concordances (below), fulsome analysis of the music and transcriptions of the two pieces, Dum complerentur and Alleluya Vox sancti bartholomei, that are most legible.

General Description
Physical Description
Glue-sides poor according to Arlt & Haas, p. 224, other sides good. It seems from the facsimiles (Tafel 6 & Tafel 9) that much of the notation may be recoverable with modern techniques. The boards of CH-Bu F.III.33 have been pasted over with new paper, obscuring any possible offsets.
