General Description

A Discantus partbook from a set originally of six volumes, each consisting of the print RISM 1575/3, with manuscript additions. Copied and formerly owned by John Baldwin, a singing-man at St George's Chapel, Windsor; English, c.1575-81, with later additions. Probably conceived from the start as a mixed volume of manuscript and printed music, since Baldwin avoided making manuscript copies of the pieces available in the printed section. Baldwin's form of representing a composer's name often varies from partbook to partbook; some ascriptions refer to composers' institutional affilitiations. Copied in Windsor. Later owned by Henry Aldrich (1647-1710), Dean of Christ Church, Oxford; bequeathed to Christ Church Library in 1710.

John Milsom, 2010
Binding

Original covers of brown leather on cardboard, with voice designations and initials 'I.B.' [= John Baldwin] stamped in gold. The partbook titles (also stamped on the upper covers) are as follows: Mus. 979: Superius; Mus. 980: Discantus; Mus. 981: Contratenor; Mus. 982: Sextapars; Mus. 983: Bassus.

Ruling

Music has been copied on sheets previously printed with black staves, of a type issued by Tallis and Byrd under the conditions of their 1575 royal patent.

John Milsom, 2010
Foliation

No foliation. The volumes were paginated in 2014.

John Milsom, 2010
Foliation

Other numberings: Baldwin himself numbered the contents as '1-169'; the only inconsistencies occur in items 167-9, where different partbooks contain different pieces.

John Milsom, 2010
Decoration

Some pieces have initials; no other decoration.

John Milsom, 2010
Index

An index of contents was begun by Baldwin at the front of Mus. 983; it was subsequently completed by Havergal, and has since been annotated by other hands.
