Description

Single vellum folio (membrum disjectum) from an Antiphonal, later reused as a pastedown. Verso rubbed and mostly faded. Dated to the second half of the 12th century, of Italian origin. Contains chants for Thursday Matins and Lauds (recto) and for Thursday/Friday Vespers, as well as Friday Matins (verso). Notation corresponds to diastematic neumes written on a single red line, usually marked with “f”; occasional additional yellow lines are marked “c.” The folio is rubricated with simple red initials. Text is written in a transitional Caroline-Gothic minuscule in black ink.
