Continental manuscripts from the fifteenth century contain hundreds of English mass movements, testifying to the widespread importation of a foreign repertory. Musicological studies of this repertory have usually borrowed methods from classical stemmatics, in which scribal errors and variants are isolated and removed in the reconstruction of an archetype. In this way, scholars have recreated lost English originals and speculated upon their musical characteristics in the abstract. This source-critical reconstruction, however, reveals little about the way Continental musicians viewed the English masses and adapted them into their repertory. This dissertation offers a case study of Scribe B, the main hand of Biblioteca Seminario maggiore di Ao sta, MS 15 (Ao), to illustrate how a focus on scribal initiatives can help us understand the ways English masses were used in a specific Continental environment. As Scribe B copied English music into Ao, he both marked those pieces as stylistically distinct and accommodated them to a Continental practice, creating a musical analog to the ideas at the Council of Basel during the 1430s and 1440s.

520 $a Continental manuscripts from the fifteenth century contain hundreds of English mass movements, testifying to the widespread importation of a foreign repertory. Musicological studies of this repertory have usually borrowed methods from classical stemmatics, in which scribal errors and variants are isolated and removed in the reconstruction of an archetype. In this way, scholars have recreated lost English originals and speculated upon their musical characteristics in the abstract. This source-critical reconstruction, however, reveals little about the way Continental musicians viewed the English masses and adapted them into their repertory. This dissertation offers a case study of Scribe B, the main hand of Biblioteca Seminario maggiore di Ao sta, MS 15 (Ao), to illustrate how a focus on scribal initiatives can help us understand the ways English masses were used in a specific Continental environment. As Scribe B copied English music into Ao, he both marked those pieces as stylistically distinct and accommodated them to a Continental practice, creating a musical analog to the ideas at the Council of Basel during the 1430s and 1440s.
520 $a The organizational details of Ao suggest that Scribe B intended his manuscript to be a functional one: he inserted English masses into their proper liturgical categories and, at the same time, created national sub-groupings. Some editorial decisions regarding page layout, text underlay, mensuration signs, and structural markings confirm his desire to create a usable collection, but others suggest that the scribe faithfully followed his exemplars. Finally, Scribe B did not prioritize unity when copying English mass cycles into Ao, whose organization equally supports the compilation of masses based on variety. Many of Scribe B's editorial choices parallel ideas current at the Council of Basel, including a retrospective outlook, a view of the English as outside a central tradition, and an understanding of a whole consisting of a variety of parts. This portrait of Scribe B's copying habits in the English masses in Ao not only expands our knowledge of one of the most prolific scribes of the mid-fifteenth century but also provides a more nuanced narrative of the development of the genre of the mass.
