Editorial context

Dataset description

The Corpus of Recorded Counterpoint Examples (CRCE), vol. 6: Vicente Lusitano — Counterpoint on Mensural Music (Vol. 4) presents historically informed instrumental recordings of the counterpoint examples on mensural music transmitted in the fourth chapter of the Libro segundo of Vicente Lusitano’s counterpoint treatise (F-Pn Esp. 219, ca. 1550).

This volume forms part of the multi-volume Corpus of Recorded Counterpoint Examples (CRCE), a research corpus documenting historically informed realisations of counterpoint examples preserved in Renaissance music theory treatises. Owing to their scale and internal organisation, Lusitano’s examples are distributed across four separate volumes within the CRCE series.

Full dataset description, documentation, and citation information are available via Zenodo:

The recordings from Lusitano’s treatise can be consulted within their broader editorial and analytical framework through the treatise-specific companion site:
