PL-Kj Mus. ms. 40295, also known as the Schmahl Organ Tablatures (de: Schmahls Orgeltabulaturen), is a collection of five manuscripts which is currently housed in the Biblioteka Jagiellonska, Kraków. The bundle (de: "Das Konvolut") contains works by Dietrich Buxtehude, Vincent Lübeck, Nicolaus Bruhns, and others.
Provenance
The manuscripts were owned by Heinrich Schmahl, the organist at St. Jacobi in Hamburg, before his death in 1892. After this, they were owned by Philipp Spitta, then by the Berlin Königliche Bibliothek (accession number 1907.828). At a later point, they were housed in the Staatsbibliothek Berlin until 1945, and now are located in Kraków.
