- Summary:
- The San Lorenzo Palimpsest is an important Florentine music manuscript of the early 15th century. The music of the manuscript was erased later in the decade, and the parchment re-used as an administrative ledger. Aspects of the music were discovered in 1980, and now a facsimile can be presented in full with the use of multispectral imaging. This edition is in two clothbound volumes; the first volume contains an introductory study, while the second contains the facsimile. Includes works by Antonio Zacara da Teramo, Bartolino da Padova, Bernard de Cluny, Donato da Firenze, Francesco Landini, Magister Franciscus, Gherardello da Firenze, Giovanni da Cascia, Giovanni Mazzuoli, Grimace, Guillaume de Machaut, Humbertus de Salinis, Jacob de Senleches, Jacopo da Bologna, Paolo da Firenze, Philippe Rollart, Philippe de Vitry, Piero Mazzuoli, Ugolino da Orvieto, and Vincenzo da Rimini, along with some unidentified works.
