About this collection

The objective is a digitalized representation of a music manuscript, a creation of the famous Greek composer Nikolaos Halikiopoulos Mantzaros. It was created around 1850 both for educational and artistic purposes. A version of this manuscript was dedicated to Victoria I, Queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, possibly in 1856. This neatly-written version belongs to the Manuscript Collection of British Library (London). The collection consists of the 'realization' of the "partimenti" that can be found in Books V. and VI. in F. Fenaroli's "Partimenti ossia basso numerato". The manuscript is considered to be one of the most important samples of the Greek music heritage.
