Working with Early Modern (Music) Prints

Optional: Printers at work - Yes, there was a proofreading process!

Nowadays, if you publish an article or a book, it must undergo multiple rounds of proofreading. An indeed "sensational" discovery made in Munich shows clearly that early music printers were eager to publish their books with as few mistakes as possible and therefore also had their proofreading process.

This short article by Bernhold Schmid and Gottfried Heinz-Kronberger gives an example of a proof and thus allows an insight into the work of an early 17th-century music printer.
