General Description

Earliest layer (ff. 28'-47, 116'-148, 177'-193) copied by an unidentified scribe, whose hand also appears in MunBS 19, MunBS 35, MunBS 38, and (probably) MunBS 37; remainder of manuscript probably copied by Ludwig Senfl. Related to MunBS 35 and MunBS 37-8 (see BenteNW, 73ff). Probably copied in Vienna, for use by the imperial court chapel of Maximilian I (1459-1519). Brought to Munich by Ludwig Senfl c. 1523, when he began serving at the court chapel of Wilhelm IV, Duke of Bavaria (1493-1550). At Munich, fascicles assembled in present order, title page added, and volume bound in present covers. Kept in Hofkapelle library until end of 18th century, then transferred to ducal court library, whose holdings formed foundation of present Bayerische Staatsbibliothek.
