    Manuscript 1560 in Royal Danish Library MS KB 1872
Description: Transcribed from the Royal Danish Library manuscript KB 1872. The notes' values and the accidentals are as in the manuscript. The text underlay is editorial. As the manuscript was intended for the use of the Royal Danish Band, the voices without text should be played on loud wind instruments (e.g. 1 cornett and 2 sackbuts). The notes' values within the "ligaturæ" are as follows: the left upstemmed notes are semibreves - the unstemmed notes are breves – the right downstemmed notes are longæ. The “musica ficta” suggestions are in the MIDI and MusicXML files.
