Piere Hoegi, fl. 1750, Italian musician resident in London. This work is entered by Jefferson in his catalogue as above[.] Its omission from the Library of Congress Catalogue of 1815 may possibly signify that it was bound by Jefferson
with Pasquali and Zuccari before its delivery to Congress. This theory is supported by the fact that before the recent re-binding
in half-morocco the four books were bound together in rough calf, which may have been the binding made for Jefferson.
