Folio 27 of the Ghent 1481 antiphonary is one of those quiet non-spectacular pages. It shows responsories for the third nocturn of Matins for Saint Stephen. Exciting!

Enjoy some previous episodes of the big Walkthrough thing:

New episode in the Antiphonary Walkthrough saga, with a helpful overview of the structure of monastic matins. Cheers!

See me handling a new loupe in this new episode of the Antiphonary Walkthrough – enjoy!

One of the shortest episodes of the Antiphonary Walkthrough so far. So if you can’t stand too much of the damned thing, this is the one to watch. Quick and easy! Plus: you get to experience the explosive start of the Respond Lapides torrentis. Cool.

After the celebrations in honour of the 50th episode, back to business, with these antiphons and responsories for the first martyr Saint Stephen. With a brief look at a painting by Lorenzo Lotto. The Stoning of Saint Stephen!

So, we have arrived at episode 50 of the Antiphonary Walkthrough, which calls for a kind of celebration. Watch us rehearse a few lines from f24v. Thanks to colleagues present: Paul Mertens, Rozelien Nys, Jonathan De Ceuster, Paul Schils, Adriaan De Koster, Michiel Haspeslagh, Philippe Souvagie, Sander Leroy, Pieter Stas, Gunter Claessens.

New episode in a 621-episodes story about a most exciting late medieval antiphonary. Once in a while you have to do something odd, like leafing through a centuries old book and taking your time to do that. Watch out for the yellow cursor.
