Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina – Zur Konzeption eines digitalen Verzeichnisses seiner Werke und deren Quelle
Giovanni Pierluigi da Palestrina – About Developing a Digital Catalogue of His Works and their Sources

Summary/Abstract: The projected digital catalogue of the works of Palestrina has the goal to gather all known sources for every extant work by Palestrina, to catalog and describe them, and to settle numerous remaining questions of authenticity. A new point of departure is creating a digital score (based on LilyPond) for all the sources (before ca. 1650) of each individual work that diplomatically reproduces the mensural notation of the source and arranges the parts, score-like, underneath each other. The different sources of a work can be automatically compared and the textual and musical deviations are displayed accordingly. In addition, there are various, especially musical search functions (e.g. polyphonic full text search) which can be combined without restrictions.
