A blog entry by Dominique Gatté dedicated to Gastoué's introduction into Byzantine Paleography was used by Neil Moran to inform about a concert programme by Graindelavoix dedicated to the Palatine chapel in Palermo (King Roger II) and about his study of the court acclamations:
The publication of the trilingual Psalter, written for the court at Palermo, on the pages of the British Library was used by me to discuss some hypotheses raised by Jeremy Johns in his doctoral thesis (which he never published). Martin Morard gave his expert opinion:

Concerning the Italo-Byzantine paleography I recommend these two fundamental essays published in the same proceedings to characterize the differences between Sicily and South Calabria and the other centre in Terra d'Otranto (Salento, Apulia):
