Scope and content
Fourteen music books with connections to Trinity College chapel, five of them remnants from two sets: items 2-4 and 6-7. Seven of them are for single voice parts: treble, alto, and bass. There are six organ books and a score. Anthems predominate, although item 8 contains only services, and four of the organ books have anthems at the front and services at the back. They appear to have been in use for a considerable period, as seen in item 6, which was begun in the 1730s but was still in use in 1814.
