Devotion to the Virgin of Seven Sorrows flourished in the Low Countries in the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries under the auspices of the court of Philip the Fair. Quickly becoming a widespread phenomenon, the Seven Sorrows devotion generated dramatic plays, artistic works, music, and numerous miracles. Underlying the popularity of the devotion was the network of confraternity chapters dedicated to the Virgin of Sorrows. Of these chapters, the Seven Sorrows confraternity of Brussels was singled out, receiving the special patronage of Philip the Fair, Maximilian I, and Margaret of Austria. Taking the confraternity of Brussels as a focal point, this volume examines the Seven Sorrows devotion in its urban context. The essays of this collection explore the artistic, musical, and dramatic products of the Seven Sorrows devotion as created in and by the civic networks and artistic channels of Brussels. The structure of the confraternity and its historical importance for the city are also demonstrated. As an important counterpoint to work in Italian confraternity studies, this volume is the first interdisciplinary study of a confraternity in the Low Countries in English. -- Back cover

Het koorboek B-Br 215-16 maakt deel uit van een verzameling van meer dan zestig weelderig verluchte manuscripten en fragmenten met 16de-eeuwse religieuze en profane muziek uit de Lage Landen die bekend staan als de Alamirehandschriften. Dit handschrift is uniek in de collectie omdat de muziek op een centraal thema focust: de Zeven Smarten van de Maagd Maria. De verering van Onze-Lieve-Vrouw van Zeven Smarten was erg populair aan het begin van de 16de eeuw in alle lagen van de bevolking, van arbeiders tot de adel. Dit manuscript getuigt met zijn polyfone en gregoriaanse gezangen van het belang van deze devotie voor het Bourgondisch-Habsburgse hof. Zoals alle publicaties in de reeks Leuven Library of Music in Facsimile is het Koorboek voor de 7 Smarten volledig in kleur en op het originele formaat uitgebracht, voorzien van uitvoerig commentaar. Deze Studie is van de hand van Emily Thelen, een musicologe gespecialiseerd in 15de- en 16de-eeuwse muziek uit de Lage Landen. Brussels, Royal Library of Belgium Ms. 215-16 is a choirbook belonging to the Alamire corpus, a group of richly illuminated manuscripts preserving sixteenth-century sacred and secular music from the Low Countries. This manuscript is unique among the collection because all of its music celebrates a central theme: the Seven Sorrows of the Virgin. Devotion to the Virgin’s Sorrows was immensely popular in the early sixteenth century among all levels of society – from labourer to nobility. As an artifact of this widespread movement, this exceptional choirbook not only commemorates the devotion through both polyphony and plainchant but also reveals its importance for the Burgundian- Habsburg court. The present facsimile with commentary is the second volume of the Leuven Library of Music in Facsimile, under the general editorship of David J. Burn and Bart Demuyt. The series presents high-quality reproductions of primary music sources of outstanding aesthetic, historical, and cultural value. Each facsimile is in full colour, at original size, and accompanied by an extended commentary, written by a leading expert. Emily Thelen is a musicologist specialising in music of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries from the Low Countries.
