contains 215 musical scores in measured notation using the five
line staff, mainly by contemporary French, Dutch, and German
composers such as Josquin Desprez, Adrian Willaert, Jacob Obrecht,
Heinrich Isaac, and Ludwig Senfl. The descant (or soprano) parts
are found on the left-hand pages, with the alto (or tenor) parts on
the right-hand pages.
