Bass part-book : manuscript, [between 1725 and 1775].

Music manuscript of a vocal part-book which appears to be for a church or cathedral bass singer, whose name may have been William Thompson. It was originally bound in with a printed copy of Handel's Coronation Anthems edited by Randall (1768-1776) with this name on the cover. Among a number of anthems (Psalm 29, Psalm 118, etc.) is the bass part of the choruses in "Messiah" in an arbitrary order but with occasional reference to the paging of the Randall & Abell edition (1767 or later).

1 v. of music (70 p.) : paper ; 29 x 23 cm.
