 --------------------------------------------------------------------------
 -----------------------------------\\r\\nFor several decades\, musicians
 ’ engagement\, in scholarship and through performance adaptations\, with
  early modern women’s ensembles has focussed on collective ornamentation
  and/or the selective instrumentation and transposition practices of seven
 teenth-century convents. For instance\, these practices informed Musica Se
 creta’s investigations of the secular repertoire of the late-sixteenth-c
 entury female vocal ensemble\, the Ferrarese concerto delle dame\, in the 
 early 2000s. But three years ago\, I published a pair of related articles 
 interrogating performance practice and repertoire for nuns in early sixtee
 nth-century Italian convents\, as I began to put together more documents a
 nd music that confirmed polyphony was indeed part of wider convent musical
  culture long before the first nun put her name to a musical publication -
  Raffaella Aleotti in 1593. This work established a repertoire of voci pa
 ri music\, some of which was specifically composed for women’s ensemble
 \, together with some indication that nuns knew how to recreate the sound 
 extemporised polyphony. This paper surveys what we as performers have lear
 ned in our turn to this earlier repertoire\, and what we are hoping to dis
 cover in a fuller investigation of the office music contained in B-Bc 2776
 6\, a large choirbook from a sixteenth-century Florentine convent.\\r\\nLa
 urie Stras is Research Professor of Music at the University of Huddersfiel
 d and Professor Emerita of Music at the University of Southampton. She is 
 co-director\, with the soprano Deborah Roberts\, of the ensemble Musica Se
 creta. She has published widely on sixteenth-century music\, music and dis
 ability\, and women in popular music. Her monograph\, Women and Music in 
 Sixteenth-Century Ferrara (Cambridge\, 2018)\, received the 2019 Otto Kin
 keldey Prize from the American Musicological Society.
