Abstract

The presented research results concerning the music collection of Professor Aleksander Poliński (the author of a book Dzieje muzyki polskiej w zarysie [An outline history of Polish music], Lviv 1907), specifically lute tablature manuscripts from the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries (Paris, Bibliothéque Nationale: Rès. Vmc. ms. 61 and Rès. Vma. ms. 1213), provide information that enables us not only to learn of their complicated history but also to indicate another source from this collection. Inscriptions written in Polish confirm that we are dealing with manuscripts which previously belonged to this collection. The materials and information revealing what sources he had at his disposal when preparing, for example, his monography on Polish music are still very valuable.
