Folio 3r, on which the organ keyboard is depicted.
Folio 4r, explaining tablature notation.

The fragmentary manuscript CH-Bu F VI 26c, signed "Osswald Holtzach / von Basel 1515" on the cover, is written in Old German tablature and contains several pieces of pedagogical music along with other repertoire typical of the time.

It begins with a general introduction to musical notation (using a diagram of the gamut and several solmisation exercises), as well as an explanation of the specific notation used for organ music. The manner in which this latter part is presented is remarkably similar to that found in one of Kotter's tablatures.
