A small unadorned parchment booklet, MS 117 of the Biblioteca Comunale Manfrediana in Faenza deals with a stunning quantity and unique quality of information on 14th- and 15th-c. Italian musical culture. The Codex is composed of two distinct and independent copying layers. The older one contains 50 non-texted intabulated diminutions generally assumed to be instrumental and dated within the first two decades of the 15th century. They comprise diminished versions of Italian and French songs by some of the major composers of the 14th and early 15th c., Jacopo da Bologna, Bartolino da Padova, Francesco Landini, Antonio Zacara da Teramo, Guillaume de Machaut, and Pierre des Molins, as well as polyphonic estampies and diminutions on dance-related and liturgical tenors, including the 3 earliest alternatim mass-pairs that have come down to us. The younger layer is an autograph by the Carmelite friar Johannes Bonadies, who in 1473 and 1474 used empty folios to add 16 music theory treatises, summaries or tables, and 22 mid- or late-fifteenth-century polyphonic settings, mostly composed by John Hothby, Bernardus Ycart, and Johannes de Erfordia, aside with some anonymous settings and a short Kyrie by Bonadies himself.

Faksimile-Edition Rara, 95. Stuttgart, 2021. 24 x 36 cm, 226 pp. Color facsimile of a rare and unique organ tablature MS from 1590 containing 83 pieces. According to an inscription in the book it was created for Abbot Carolus Andreae, a Benedictine monk active at the Kloster of Irsee, Ostallgäu, Bavaria (Andreae is credited with initiating the installation of a new organ by the Irsee organ builder Daniel Hayl in 1612). The MS comprises an anthology organ adaptations of vocal music from the last decades of the 16th c., including works by Hans Leo Hassler, Orlando di Lasso, Johannes Eccard, Joachim a Burck, Michael Tonsor, Jakob Regnart, Heinricus de la Court, Philippe le Duc, Sebastian Hasenknopf, and Alexander Utendal. The aim of the intabulations (a notation very similar to German lute tablature) is not clear—they may have been written for study, or rehearsal purposes, or most likely, for possible insertion in a liturgical setting. The MS ends with one piece in “modern” staff notation. Hardbound in decorative paper boards. $125 (more info... ) [item no.9662]

English Keyboard Music c.1600-1625. Edited by Alan Brown

Musica Britannica, XCVI. London, 2014. 4º. Modern critical edition. This volume is the first of two intended to extend the coverage of keyboard music in Musica Britannica comprehensively into the first quarter of the 17th century. The present edition contains music by anonymous and a dozen or so named composers, including the complete keyboard works of Nicholas Carleton, the surviving twenty 'Miserere' canons by Thomas Woodson, and the anonymous 'Pretty ways for young beginners to look on'. The 77 complete pieces are organized by genre, including preludes, plainsong settings, voluntaries, dances and character pieces. Drawing on 22 manuscripts which mostly also transmit music by Byrd and other noted virginalists, this residue of music from these sources shows great diversity and a pleasing level of technical skill and musical interest, sufficient to enhance our wider view of English Renaissance music.

While studying in Italy Thomas Roseingrave became a disciple of Domenico Scarlatti, but in his own keyboard music he developed a personal gift for bold harmonies and modulations into a style that confounded his contemporaries and retains its novelty to this day. He was the first organist of St George’s, Hanover Square, until mental illness overshadowed his professional life. His keyboard music remains among the most intriguing œuvres of any 18th-century British composer. Buckram. $157 [item no.6619]
