Thesaurus Musicarum Italicarum (TMI) is a corpus of Italian-language music treatises from the 16th and 17th century. The core of the corpus is formed by the writings of Gioseffo Zarlino, a Venetian musician and intellectual whose writings belong to history’s most influential music theoretical writings. TMI is edited using Text Encoding Initiative (TEI) markup (see http://www.tei-c.org/). TmiWeb, the web version of TMI, was developed on top of the DynaWeb SGML publishing environment. Since 2002, this software is no longer supported by the vendor. The aim of the DANS-funded TmiWeb2 was therefore to design a new, XML-based infrastructure for TMI.This dataset comprises:• TEI P5 encodings of the treatises that were migrated• relevant document schemas• music examples from the treatises (partly)Illustrations from the treatises that were reproduced from the sources or from facsimiles, and encodings of the treatises before migration, are not included.

Remarks by DANS - The documentation is in English. - During processing, the file TmiTest20.rnc has been replaced by the following file TmiTest20.xsd. This file is accompanied by the next two files: ns1.xsd and xml.xsd. - The files glyphDeclarations.xml and odd20.xml are not valid XML files, but do contain relevant information for understanding the dataset. Therefore they are accessible for use. - Please note, as mentioned in the readme: Files in the doc, P3 and P4 subdirectories are not publicly available.
