The Lynar tablatures are a collection of manuscripts that are currently held in the Staatsbibliothek, Berlin. Many of the manuscripts are now available on the internet.

History[1]

The first Lynar tablatures that were known to musicologists were the A 1 and A 2 manuscripts. These two manuscripts had copies made of them in the middle of the 19th century. Later in the 19th century both manuscripts went missing (In the 1894 edition of keyboard works of Sweelinck, Max Seiffert could only rely on the 1841 copy). However, the "A" manuscripts were fortunately found in 1920, and around this time the 11 manuscripts in tablature notation were discovered by Rochus Friedrich zu Lynar. All 13 manuscripts were collected and stored in the Spreewald museum in Lübbenau-Lehde. In 1933[2] Max Seiffert inspected the manuscripts and assigned the shelfmarks starting with A (referring to staff notation) and B (tablature notation). The description penciled on the front of each manuscript is written by Seiffert.

In 1956, the manuscripts were moved to the Staadtsbibliothek, Berlin, retaining their previous shelfmarks.

Description

According to the Berlin Staatsbibliothek website, the shelfmark for the manuscripts is stylized Ms. Lynar A 1, Ms. Lynar B 2, etc.

Lynar B 3[11][12]

This manuscript's pages are numbered in a way that is slightly similar to the recto and verso method of numbering folios, in which each group of two pages that are visible when opened are counted together. In other words, 2v-3r is labeled 2. A piece which is on four pages (in other words, 2v-4r) is labeled 2-3. The numbering on the left side and right side of each group of pages are not idential, the numbering on the left side is counted here.

Lynar B 4[13][14]

This manuscript contains four pieces:

  • "In dir hab / ich gehoffet / Herr / auf 2 Clavier / manualiter" starting on page 1
  • Illegible, maybe "Jesus Christus / unser heÿlantt / auf 2 Clavir / pedaliter" on page 4
  • "Fantasia / M. S[?]. P." on page 10
  • "Fantasia / A. 3 Vocum / Transpon: per 4ton" starting on page 14 and ending on the page 16-17 opening.

The page numbers (instead of folios) have been penciled in by a librarian.

Lynar B 5[15][16]

The ending of the fragmented Durch Adams fall by Jacob Praetorius

This manuscript contains one piece, a fragment of a Chorale Fantasia Durch Adams Fall ist ganz verderbt auff 3 clavier by Jakob Praetorius. The piece is neatly written in five voices, suggesting that the top voice is to be played on Rückpositiv, the second on Brustwerk, the third and fourth on Organum, and the bottom in Pedal[17].

Lynar B 6[18][19]

Mus. ms. Lynar b 6 contains a manualiter Toccata auf 2 clavir by Heinrich Scheidemann on 10 pages.

The heading to Psalm 100 in Lynar B 7

Lynar B 7[20][21]

Ms. Lynar B 7, also known as the Lübbenauer Tablatur[22], consists of variations on the Genevan psalms, some one verse and some several. The header of each piece is stylized by a three-pronged symbol (roughly ⟒) followed by the number of the psalm. Some verses are also marked "3 voci" or "Corall in tenor" for example.

Lynar B 8[23][24]

This manuscript contains two pieces, "Ich ruff zu / dir herr / Jesu Christ / auff 2. clavier" and "Alio modo / auff 2. und 3. / Clavir, und auff der / Pedal zu gebrauf [?] / Anton Neünhaber." These are thought to be two verses of the same piece by Andreas Neunhaber[25]. The second piece is in five voices and has detailed manual change indications written into the tablature.

Lynar B 9[26][27]

Lynar B 9 contains two preludes on two pages. The title page lists the keys/tonality "A cis" and "F a".

Lynar B 10[28][29]

This manuscript contains one [fragmented?] piece, anonymous Sei nun wieder zufrieden a 3. The composition ends after the first system on the third page, the final symbol is a cut time signature.

Lynar C 1[30][31][32]

Lynar C 1 (also referred to as B 11) contains anonymous simple settings of the genevan psalms for keyboard.
