I could use with some help deciphering a handwritten note on some music I have been transcribing.This is from a 1642 publication in German, containing music by an obscure composer called Johann Vierdanck. The annotation comes at the bottom of the first page of a piece in three sections, and it appears in the two voice parts only: it’s not in the accompanying (basso continuo) part.It presumably is an instruction of some kind, needed for the singers (only). None of the other pieces in the volume have anything like this. Screen captures of the two. I believe they are the same text, but maybe not. Any ideas? I’ve got as far as ‘NB’. And maybe there’s a numeral 3 towards the end. #Transcription #BaroqueMusic #MusicHistory
