Motets pour la chapelle du Roy, mis en musique, par Monsieur Du Mont abbé de Silly, & maistre de la musique, de ladite chapelle. Basse du petit choeur.
A 1686 Paris printed collection of motets by Henry Du Mont, abbé de Silly and master of music to the French royal chapel, issued by Christophe Ballard for the chapel's small choir as its bass part. The pictures are engraved decorative initial letters (C, D, C, E) set beside lines of square-note chant, with stems, ligatures and Latin text under the staves; the ornate woodcut capitals, one with a figure and a scroll, offer designers a model for historiated initials and period music typography.
