Monastična vzporednica zbirki Parnassus musicus Ferdinandaeus

There are many parallels in the context and content of the printed anthology Parnassus Musicus Ferdinandaeus , dedicated in 1615 to the Inner-Austrian ruler in Graz, and the manuscript collection assembled around 1625 for the use of the monks at the Kremsmunster monastery (Ms. L76). They reflect alike the early diffusion of the Italian sacred monodic repertoire and style in regions of Austria, thanks partly to personal contact between native-born musicians and their Italian contemporaries.
