Ancient organ music. [circa 1650s]

Anglo-Flemish organ music, written in manuscript on paper, in several unidentified hands, known as the Novello Organ Book. The manuscript contains over one hundred works, including organ masses and other Roman Catholic liturgical music, possibly used by English recusants in the Low Countries. Also present are preludes and fugues, variations, fantasias, and other secular music. Composers include Abraham van den Kerckhoven, Henricus Liberti, Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck, and "Jacobus de Cherf." A few works are dated 1651.
