    Notes
    • Facsimile of Manuscript 117 of the Biblioteca Comunale Manfrediana in Faenza.
    • Codex contains fifty non-texted intabulated diminutions assumed to be instrumental dating from the first quarter of the 15th century and comprise diminished versions of Italian and French songs from the 14th and early 15th centuries, as well as polyphonic estampies and diminutions on dance-related and liturgical tenors. Interleaved with the intabulations is an autograph by Johannes Bonadies of sixteen music theory treatises, summaries or tables, and twenty-two mid- or late-fifteenth century polyphonic settings, all copied in 1473 and 1474.
