The series Leuven Library of Music in Facsimile from the Alamire Foundation, with David Burn and Bart Demuyt as its general editors, presents high-quality reproductions of primary music sources of outstanding aesthetic, historical and cultural value. The series is broadly conceived, covering monophony and polyphony, both vocal and instrumental, from the Middle Ages, the Renaissance and later times. In order to approach the original documents as closely as possible, each facsimile is in full colour and at original size. Each is also accompanied by an extended commentary, written by a leading expert, that sets out the most recent and up-to-date assessment of the source, including codicology, contents, history and context.

This instalment in the series LLMF is a companion study to facsimile editions in the three choirbooks that the Brotherhood of Our Illustrious Lady purchased from Alamire in 1531. These books are special in that they are still owned today by the same institution that purchased them for practical use in its liturgical services.
The study is divided into four chapters, which respectively provide a brief sketch of the brotherhood, outline its borders for books from Alamire in 1496 and 1530/31, examine the three books more closely, and consider the repertoire in the books.
