Old Hall Manuscript

The Old Hall Manuscript is a significant collection of late medieval English polyphonic music, dating from around the early 15th century. It is named after Old Hall, a former residence in the county of Norfolk, England, where it was discovered in the 19th century. The manuscript is particularly important for its preservation of a wide range of musical styles and practices of its time, including settings of the Ordinary of the Mass, motets, hymns, and other liturgical pieces.
