RISM Description

RISM

XVe/XVIe s. 130ff. Papier, 338 x 240 mm. Foliotation ancienne, quelquefois lacunaire et remplacée par une foliotation moderne. Les ff. 1, 8v, 9, 53v, 54, 66v à 70, 95v à 101, 109v à 110v sont blancs. Notation mesurée blanche. 10 portées par p. Reliure ancienne très fatiguée, cuir estampé.

Ce ms., probablement destiné (comme les mss. 758, 759, 760), à la Scuola degli Accoliti, fondée en 1440 par les autorités religieuses et civiles de Vérone, est un de ceux qui révèlent l'influence des compositeurs franco-flamands des cours de Naples et de Milan sur le répertoire liturgique de la cathédrale. Un des filigranes (oie, aux ff. 111 à 130) que l'on retrouve dans trois autres mss. de la Capitolare (757, 758, 759) caractérise des papiers répandus dans une région très limitée du nord de l'Italie et tout particulièrement à Vérone et Vicence, ce qui tendrait à démontrer l'origine véronaise de tous ces mss.
