Here are the neumes I'm not %100 sure about:
Right from the get-go on "magne." I put:
Igitur - there is no line drawn above the staff, but "gi" is visibly written higher:
Verbum tuum - red line above the staff is distorted, additional black line above the red line? Strangeness on the last neume of "tuum":
Per quod nos constituisti - third black line is at times invisible, black mark above "tui" is probably not a neume:
Aspicias - second mark does not appear to be a neume:
Ipsum - strange:
Nomem - Any guesses? :
Adiuvare(re) - last re, confusing:
Hey Brother Francis! Thanks for posting this stuff. I'm an atheist in Vienna, but I too am fascinated by Hildegard, and I'm working up performances of a number of her pieces. What an amazing woman she must have been.
ReplyDeleteSicut aliubi iam scripsi, frater Francisce, the red line above the key line is not an additional line, but a way to mark the space of the FA above the key (a kind of highlighting expedient). The highest note on "(ipsum) nomen", for instance, is a FA (and not a SOL).
ReplyDeleteThe sign before the SI of "-men" (in "ipsum nomen") is the sign the SI flat. You find it elsewhere in the score. The question is: how long does the alteration last? Probably until the end of the word (not until the end of the line). The issue is interesting and should be addressed. There are some nice examples of the flat sign usage in the Riesencodex.
