Described by Lerch, following FallowsCA, and labelled by her F-CA(n) i.e. neu/new. It contains a number of otherwise unknown 14th century motets and mass movements, alongside some well-known ones.

A collection of pages, originally bifolios from a single 14th-century manuscript, which were re-used as guard pages in a number of different manuscripts & incunabula still held in the Cambrai collection. The largest group of fragments, held as MS B 1328, were removed and assembled into a portfolio prior to 1891; the remainder are still within the books where they were re-used: manuscript C647; and incunabula B56, B144, B145, B165, B166.

As well as the pastedowns, images include the 'mirror-image' offsets of the glued-down side of the fragments, which remained on the inside of the covers from which the fragments had been detached, sometimes in a more legible state than the fragments themselves.

The reconstruction of the surviving gatherings of the original manuscript fragments follows that in Lerch's thesis.

F-CA(n) itself has no physical existence.

As the pages which form the reconstruction were formerly glued into bindings as pastedowns, removing them left parts or all of the sides which were glued down almost illegible. Some, however, can be 'read' from their 'mirror images' left in the books from which they were removed - see FallowsCA.

Ars Nova

Most folios have 8 five-line staves per page, in red or brown ink.

1-16v, as described by Lerch. See MS B 1328 for a cross-reference between the various foliations used for the fragments which form part of that ms.

Pages from a number of manuscripts and incunabula are used in this reconstruction. Full information, bibliography, etc is provided in the entries on those sources.
