Description:
Apart from the many beautifully calligraphed choirbooks, the Bavarian State Library contains a lot of part books. A remarkable set of books is the collection of Motets assembled by Friedrich Lindner.
There are 2 of these collections of motets; the first - published in 1585 - containing 41 motets for 5, 6 and more voices, was dedicated to Duke Ludwig of Württemberg u. Teck; this book is entirely transcribed in this First Lindner Collection, although some motets by Palestrina are very well known. The 2nd (dedicated to Georg Friedrich Markgraf von Brandenburg etc.) was published in 1588, containing 56 motets for 4 - 12 voices; this is only partly transcribed in this Second Lindner Collection, because the many motets by Andrea and Giovanni Gabrieli in the original part books are well-known and free to be obtained in the worldwide market. So in this transcription of the 2nd collection there are only 32 motets and none to be found for more than 8 voices, however beautiful they are.
