[Organ book from Eisenstadt]. [between 1785 and 1786]

The manuscript is a kind of "organ book", written and mostly "composed" by an organist. On fol. 1 to fol. 5r there are bass lines to Gregorian chant, mostly one bass note set to one note of chant, sometimes two minims to one note of chant, the bass line to Regina caeli laetare (fol. 3r), respectively, four crotchets to one note of chant. Most of the nine chant melodies are Marian antiphons. On fol. 5v there is a schedule of a canonical hour ("Ad completorium") in soprano clef instead of the bass clef used before, followed on fol. 6r ff. by organ settings of chant (soprano + bass clef) . At the beginning there is an "Inv[itatorium] in Nativit[ate] D[omi]ni" with the melody "Christus natus est nobis" (only 7 bars). The organ setting on fol. 7r with instructions for the setting of the thorough bass written on the top of the page is a very poor one, it sounds terrible in some instances. Probably not written by a skilled master like Haydn.
