Digital Image Archive of Medieval Music

https://www.diamm.ac.uk/

The Digital Image Archive of Medieval Music (DIAMM) contains more than 14,000 digital images of medieval and early modern manuscripts of polyphony, the simultaneous performance of multiple melodies. Combining high-quality images of music manuscripts alongside detailed metadata (including Description, Bibliography, Commentary, and Contributors), DIAMM is an extensive resource for scholars and librarians of medieval music and manuscripts. This vast collection of images not only facilitates musicological research, but digitally preserves the content of parchment manuscripts which are otherwise vulnerable to damage and illegibility over time. Visitors to the site may conduct a simple search from the homepage or perform an advanced search to further narrow results by Composer, Genre, Archive Location, and other filters. Recently Added Sources are listed on the homepage and currently include items from the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. To get the most from this resource, visitors will need to register for a free account.
