Bifolio fragment from a vocal partbook, mostly with music for treble/cantus/soprano but also for tenor (p. 3). More leaves from the same partbook are found in Och Mus. 1279 (which constitutes the remainder of the original MS). Nothing seems to be known of other partbooks that would have belonged to the supposed original set.
