Our collection contains all Polish polyphonic secular songs of the 16th century (except the love songs and the Klabon cycle), including several that have never been published before. This represents the first effort to collect this repertory, and we hope that continued research will enable us to add new, still unknown compositions. Because the songs were composed in relation to certain historic events, each one has been provided with a short editor's note. Full texts are given at the end of the collection. We give both the original text in the early Polish form and a corrected modern version for convenience.
