General Description

A Bassus I partbook from an incomplete set of four books. A collection of Christmas songs (Wehnachstlieder) (except the last), copied by several scribes over a number of years. One of the latest scribes was Georg Seydel, probably identical with the priest in Annaberg (1645-1675), implying perhaps that the books were there in the late 1660s.

Ownership inscription on inside front cover of the Altus I book, "Christianus Martini".
