From the collection of the Polish musicologist Aleksander Poliński: On the provenance of two lute tablature manuscripts held in the Bibliothèque nationale in Paris

Summary/Abstract: The presented research results concerning the music collection of Professor Aleksander Poliński, specifically lute tablature manuscripts from the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, provide information that enables us not only to learn of their complicated history but also to indicate another source from this collection. Inscriptions written in Polish confirm that we are dealing with manuscripts which previously belonged to this collection. The materials and information revealing whatsources he had at his disposal when preparing, for example, his 'Dzieje muzyki polskiejw zarysie’, 1907 [An outline history of Polish music] are still very valuable.
