General Description

Contains sections of votive antiphons, Magnificats, and other Latin-texted works. Copyists unidentified. The principal copyist was responsible for all except items 1 and 37, which were added by two different hands. English, last quarter of 16th century. Collation unknown on account of the tightness of the binding.

Provenance unknown, but presumably from either the Aldrich or Goodson bequests. Not mentioned in any early catalogue before Malchair 1787, where it is listed (f. 3) as 'An Antient Italian M.S. requiring / more studdy to make out than can bee / aforded at Catalogue making time / Quarto Vol. vellum bound' (identified as 'Italian' perhaps because the contents are mostly Latin-texted extracts from pre-Reformation Magnificats and votive antiphons).

John Milsom, 2010

Binding

Late 18th-century binding of white parchment over boards, undecorated except for two parallel fillets at edges. Spine in contrasting brown leather; on spine, a red leather inset, tooled in gold: 'MUSICA / SACRA / M.S.'. Nothing remains of any earlier binding. The volume was bound at Christ Church in the late 18th century as part of an uncompleted binding project intended to protect previously unbound items from the Aldrich and Goodson bequests. (For a list of other volumes in related bindings, see the entry for Mus. 3.)
