Bassus Generalis
The hardware/hosting support of this site by the Conservatory of
Geneva has been disrupted without notice in 2011.
Currently, the site is under reconstruction and will be
re-opened as soon as possible.
As to make the so far collected information available until the new
site is finished, here a list of the existing sources and translations,
some of them still in preliminaty form.
