HUGHES, DOM ANSELM (ED) - Catalogue of the Musical Manuscripts at Peterhouse Cambridge

1953. . xvi, (i), 75 (i) pp. * Among the documentary sources of the music of the period 1540-1640 which escaped loss or wanton destruction the Peterhouse manuscripts are of notable importance. There are nineteen of them, and Dom Anselm Hughes has divided them into two groups : a set of four Latin part-books here called the "Henrician set", and two sets of English part-books with some Latin insertions called the "Caroline sets"; together with a contemporary organ-book. Transcripts of two scores are given : Christ rising again, by Thomas Wilson and O Sapientia, by Robert Ramsey..
