Thank you for directing me to the Christ Church catalogue entry for
Ms. Mus. 377 -- I have been very curious to know the exact contents
as I am planning a program around Queen Christina.
The Webber article was not consciously in my thoughts when I
suggested a possible music swap, but it must have been lurking there
anyway.
It is interesting to see that Ms. Mus. 996 (not mentioned in Tyler)
shares the same scribe, but does not seem to have an inscription
connecting it to Bartolotti. Might they both be in Bartolotti's hand?
Or were they copied by someone else from original(s), one of which
may have belonged to Bartolotti?
Perhaps you should put both manuscripts on your Oxford "To do" list!

Well - it is interesting that you should mention this. You can
access the
catalogue of Christchurch Oxford on line where you will find a
detailed
description of the manuscript. - it is Ms. Mus.377. It includes
a reference to an article which
I duly obtained a copy of and read -
Geoffrey Webber, 'Italian Music at the Court of Queen Christina:
Christ
Church, Oxford, Mus. MS 377 and the Visit of Vincenzo Albrici's
Italian
Ensemble, 1652-54', Svensk Tidskrift för Musikforskning, 1993:2,
pp. 47-53. (That's why I asked you for the earlier article)
I can't give all the details but he suggests that the ms. may have
been
given to Whitlocke - who entertained the Italian musicans whilst
he was in
Stockholm - and that he brought it to England. I suppose Mr.
Angelloe could be Bartolotti.
I have been meaning to go to Oxford to have a look at the ms. but
haven't got around to it yet.
I'd like to know where to access the full entry for the Rogers.
Best
Monica

(Also posted to the Lute List)
While browsing in the Duben database today I came across an entry
for
a Suite by Benjamin Rogers that mentioned a "mr Angelloe".
Although the Uppsala University website suggests this referred to a
patron of Rogers, I wondered if it might just as possibly refer to
Bartolotti.
James Tyler lists a cantata manuscript in Oxford (GB-Och MS 377)
that
is believed to have belonged to Bartolotti. (TGAIM footnote on
page 69)
Perhaps there was an exchange of music between the English musicians
that travelled with Bulstrode Whitelocke and the Italian group in
Stockholm which included Bartolotti.

On imhs 5:13a, treble 2: paujn: "ffor mr Angelloe these" -- mr
Angelloe probably refers to Nathaniel Ingelo, patron to Rogers and
member of Whitelockes embassy to Sweden 1653-54. The two mentioned
suites by Rogers that were presented to Queen Christina (Holman
1984)
are likely identical to imhs 5:13a and 5:13b./KHE
