Abstract
The Archive of the Cathedral of Barbastro (Huesca) holds an Office antiphonary from the beginning of the 15th century, almost unknown to the scientific community. This article analyzes the manuscript, which contains the Proper chants from the first Sunday of Advent until Good Friday, from the codicological, musicological and liturgical perspective, in order to identify the tradition codified in the Church of Barbastro during the Middle Ages. We aim to detect, on the one hand, the various liturgical influences that have converged in this border diocese; and on the other hand, to highlight the exceptional richness of the square notation of this source with numerous features rooted in the old neumatic notations.
