General Description

Choirbook, containing a series of mass settings, showing signs of wear. Neatly laid-out with careful texting; 'German' layout with Sup-Bas/Alt-Ten on each opening. The book ends with Magnificat settings, the beginning of a series continued in Mus. ms. L 5.

Written by a single scribe, who also copied Mus ms L 5

The codex was gifted to the monastery by Abbot Burkhard Furtenbacher of Lambach (1585-1599), whose coat-of-arms it displays; he was in charge at Kremsmunster 1589-1590, so the gift probably dates from that time.
