I highly recommend a visit on this page which offers plenty of chant manuscripts in different languages (18th-20th century). Unfortunately this website does no longer exist and these links are no longer available. I leave the list, so that you can compare.

* Wrong classification of ms 53m: the so-called "Mathematarion" (book of exercises) manuscript is an Anthology for Hesperinos, Orthros and the Divine Liturgies, its notator (Matthaios of Vatopaidi?) used the reform notation of 1814 (New Method)

  • Please have a look at the current homepage of the Stavropoleos Monastery of Bucharest.

    There is only an incomplete psaltic manuscript list of the own collection without any links to the reproductions, but some Athonite manuscripts belonging to the Romanian school (most of them in Old Church Slavonic!) had been added in another page with "other collections".

    "Noua carta" means digitised prints.

  • Please have a fresh look at the manuscript page (the list in the discussion has been updated now):

    http://www.stavropoleos.ro/biblioteca-digitala/psaltichie/manuscris...

    Reproductions of new manuscripts have been released, former resources are be available again!
