Barcelona, Biblioteca de Catalunya, BM 853c/d

Seven folios and a bifolio from a late 14th or early 15th-century manuscript of sacred polyphony. Items 5, 7 and 10 are concordant in F-APT 16bis. The large size of the codex and the care with which it was prepared suggests a provenance of importance, such as the Royal Chapel in Aragon.
