#chant adjacent fragments this #fragmentfriday: on the last day of January, how many fragments should you sing at the Clares convent in Bruges? fragmentarium.ms/view/page/F…
colours are faded but still barely visible. must have been very fun to sing from this #chant book when it was new. #fragmentfriday fragmentarium.ms/view/page/F…
Christmas chants used as flyleaf in a Belgian archive--and the pages got re-used for other musical scribbles! #fragmentfriday fragmentarium.ms/view/page/F…

what is the oldest #chant fragment on @FragmentariumMS ? this page was probably written in 8th c. Ireland, but has 11th c. German-style neumes. to top off its multinational story, it has been in France since at least the 19th c. #fragmentfriday fragmentarium.ms/view/page/F…

A milestone for MMFC: 1600 fragments from Flemish collections published on Fragmentarium and available to scholars worldwide. #fragmentology fragmentarium.ms/search?sQue…
its #allsaints this #fragmentfriday! some different chants in celebration: this German number (for vespers; ca 1400; now in Stuttgart fragmentarium.ms/view/page/F…)
this English chant manuscript may not look fancy, but any time you're instructing five children to go chanting with candles in the middle of the night it seems pretty ott (15th c Sarum manuscript, now in Montreal: archive.org/details/McGillLi…)
and then there's this Fancy French breviary, with just a bit of chant before the opening reading of Matins (late 13th c., Troyes? now in Ottawa). it has a little FACE archie.library.carleton.ca/i…
this chant page @HoughtonLib is not for #StLuke but it has an ox who seems quite nonplussed by squiggly neumes #fragmentfriday fragmentarium.ms/overview/F-…
