At the moment, Limburg was area of the Duchy of Brabant, nonetheless it was ceded to Burgundian control around 1408. Lymburgia appears the probably applicant for compiling, in the first to middle-1420s, the old layer from the manuscript I-Bc Q15, housed in Bologna. It includes 42 of his compositions and contemporary scholars possess ascribed another five products within this same manuscript to him; therefore Lymburgia may be the second-most symbolized composer in Q15 apart from Guillaume Dufay.
