description After the failure of the Warsaw Uprising (1944), German Brandkommando units burned down the most valuable collections of Warsaw libraries. Also destroyed was the manuscript of keyboard tablature from the Holy Spirit Monastery in Kraków (TKD). Access to its content was only possible through microfilm at Harvard Library. As a result of my query at the Staatliches Institut für Musikforschung Preußischer Kulturbesitz in Berlin, it was found that a copy of TKD was also made in this institution. These are photographs that significantly supplement the existing information about its musical and provenance contents, including its belonging to the Aleksander Poliński collection.
