General Information

Title: Old Hall Manuscript
Publication date and place: 1421 at British Library, Add MS 57950. – Manuscript
Editor-Compiler: Nicholas Sturgeon

Description: The Old Hall Manuscript (British Library, Additional MS 57950) is an important source of early 15c English music, held until 1973 at St Edmund's College, Old Hall Green (Herfordshire) before its acquisition by the British Library. Composers represented include Leonel Power, Pycard, William Typp, Thomas Bytteryng, Oliver, Chirbury, Excetre, John Cooke, Roy Henry (probably Henry V), Queldryk, John Tyes, Aleyn, Fonteyns, Gervays, Lambe, Nicholas Sturgeon, Thomas Damett, Antonio Zacara da Teramo and Mayshuet.

Numbering: Numbering follows Curtis and Wathey 1994 as amended by Cook and Wright 2017, except for treating folio 3r as containing two different fragments. Hence from Gloria, Old Hall 5 onwards, the numbering below is one more than the numbering of the works as seen on other inventories.
