Description
A
Gradual
contains
the
appropriate
antiphons
of a
mass
sung
by the
choir
of the
Latin
Church
on
Sundays
and
special
holidays
. The
text
was
furnished
largely
by the
150
Psalms
and the
Canticles
of the
Old
and
New
Testaments
. The
superb
example
of
calligraphy
in this
leaf
illustrates
the
supremacy
of the
Italian
scribes
of the
time
over
those of the
rest
of
Europe
.
It
is
frequently
assumed
that this
late
revival
of
fine
writing
may
have been
caused
by the
concern
of
scribes
over
the
impending
competition
with the
newly
invented
art
of
printing
. The
music
staff
still
retains
here the
early
12th
century
form
with the
C-line
colored
yellow
and the
F-line
red
. The
four-line
red
staff
had been in
use
for
over
two
centuries
before
this
manuscript
was
written
.
