's Hertogenbosch: Bouwloods (NL-SHsj)

In the Bouwloods the archive and books of St.-Janskerk in 's Hertogenbosch are preserved.

Manuscripts

* NL-SHsj 216-1, Intonation book, 15th century or ca 1500
* NL-SHsj 216-2, Graduale-Sequentiarium, ca 1530

In the Bouwloods are several liturgical imprints, among which a gradual, late 16th century, and some antiphoners and psalters, ca 1571-1572 (printed by Plantijn, Antwerpen, containing secular liturgy and not for a specific church). The calendar of the psalters is adapted for the St.-Janskerk, so probably the books have been in use there from the 16th century onwards, but no specific chants for the church are found.
Besides, there are several younger liturgical imprints, dating from 1751 up to 1873.

Literature

Gregoriaans in laatmiddeleeuws 's-Hertogenbosch contains a table of contents of the manuscripts and a list of the liturgical imprints.
