Misc. Comments

• According to Grove Music, this is a later edition of Musicae activae micrologus (1517).
• It contains some amount of material on performance practice; Grove Music cites the following: "He sharply criticized practices in sacred music, complaining of the priests’ inadequate musical knowledge and hasty singing, wrong accentuation, incorrect pronunciation, rhythmic waywardness, ‘crying’ and ‘howling’."
