Abstract

The »Domino« church is one of the oldest Dubrovnik churches. It played an important role in the life of the city. Its history is still not widely explored, and the relics of the musicliturgical tradition are only nominally known. The most widely-known fact is that Marin Držić was one of the two rectors of the church, according to the inherited family law of patronage over the church and its properties. Part of the legacy of the »Domino« church is kept today in the State Archive of Dubrovnik.
Within the framework of the Croatian Science Foundation (HRZZ) project IP 6619 Cromuscodex70, in 2018, the content of three archive boxes was reviewed. The authors have found an unknown source of music – the Franciscan antiphony of the »Bosnian vikarius« from the 15th century. Along with it (in the musical part of the legacy), there is a rather damaged musical manuscript (Kyriale) with items that belong to the tradition of the cantus fractus in the 18th century. Both sources are given a preliminary presentation. The authors also present a typology of the decorated initials (littera ferialis) of the Antiphonary, and reconstruct the rubrics that hint clearly toward the Franciscan origin of this chant manuscript.
