1 Although the specific provenance of Tr93 remains uncertain, recent scholarship involving paper and watermarks suggests that another of the Codices, Tr90 (which was in turn a copy, for the most part, of Tr93), was likely a work in progress when brought from Munich to Trent in 1455 by its principal scribe, Johannes Wiser, who was taking up the post of succentor at Trent. It seems logical to assume that its exemplar, Tr93 (which may also have been incomplete at the time) also originated in Munich and made the trip to Trent with Wiser. See Peter Wright, ‘Johannes Wiser s Paper and the Copying of his Manuscripts’ in Atti del convegno internazionale: I codici musicali trentini‒Nuove scoperte e nuovi orientamenti delta ricerca (Trento, 1996), pp. 31-53. On the relationship of Tr93 and Tr90, and the direction of copying between them, see Margaret Bent, Fifteenth-Century Liturgical Music, II: Four Anonymous Masses, Early English Church Music 22 (London, 1979), pp. x-xi; idem, ‘Trent 93 and Trent 90: Johannes Wiser at Work’, I codice musicali trentini a cento anni dalla loro riscoperta; Atti del convegno Laurence Feininger la musicologia come missione, ed. Nino Pirrotta and Danilo Curti (Trento, 1986), pp. 84-111.
