Anthologies of Musical Works from the 15th-17th Centuries in the Library of Congress Music Division

A guide to early modern music anthologies in the Library of Congress, including a bibliography with tables of contents. "The compilation of this bibliography was in large part based on a reconciliation of the data from the printed RISM B/1 volume (Recueils imprimés, XVIe-XVIIe siècles, ed. Lesure, 1960) with the Music Division’s paper card catalogs located in the Performing Arts Reading Room. RISM’s original intention was to publish a supplement to Lesure’s B/1 volume that would list each anthology’s contents; this project was never completed, however, leaving critical pieces of information unavailable to the researcher."
