DETAILS
Technique for printing music:

multiple impression

Text font:

Rotunda, Antiqua (Roman), Uncial

Colour printing:

red type on title page, red staff lines, red initials, red text

Remarks on printing:

Antiqua is used only in the preface by the bishop. The music is found in quires r and s. In some instances it looks as if the red had been printed after the black. In the canon single notes are printed in red (t5v). When they touch the line, the staff lines are interrupted. Two columns, 38, 20 lines. Space is always left for the large red uncial initials, which start new pieces or important sections of chant. Red double margins bound the staves to the left and the right, and the clefs and custodes are printed within these.


Notation:

Hufnagel notation

Number of staff lines:
4

1
Measurements:

full-length staff: 165 x 17.0 mm; height of virga: 7.5 mm

Comments on notation:

The music type is elegantly cut and a full range of notational forms are used. The pater noster in the canon contains notes printed in red that are to be sung on high feasts and omitted on ferial celebrations (rubric at the bottom of t5r).
