A collection of renaissance choral music scores, typeset using Lilypond and organised by composer.

In these transcriptions, we have taken the unconventional step of removing the bar lines, which were not used when this music was composed. The bar lines, added later in line with modern practice, provide false cues about rhythmic structure and undermine musical phrasing.

Selected binaries (PDF) are available on the Cappella Gabrieli scores page and the Choral Public Domain Library.
