Notes: Only one incomplete tenor part book (originally perhaps of 14 fols. as in [c.1550]¹9) survives of an original set of four.
Contents were probably the same as those in [c.1550]¹9 (the Turin part book lacks pp. 8-9, 14-15, and all those following 23), except that 1550²0 includes one additional composition, "Li nostri preti han questa bona usanza" by Perissone [Cambio] (no. 2 in 1550²0).
For later editions, see 1551¹3, 1552²2, 1556²5, and 1558¹5; these are all described in CardamoneF 1981, Appendix C: vol. 2, pp. 41-48.
For further information, see VogelB 1977.
