The Chansons of Orlando Di Lasso and Their Protestant Listeners: Typhus and Tunisia
ISBN: 9781580460750 / Angielski / Twarda / 284 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book aims to enrich our understanding of the French secular music of Orlando di Lasso, using those songs as a means of understanding a particular community of Renaissance readers and the music books they created.

The Beneventan Chant
ISBN: 9780521065979 / Angielski / Miękka / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. From the High Middle Ages the dominance of Gregorian chant has obscured the fact that musical practice in early medieval Europe was far richer than has hitherto been recognized.

The recovery and study of regional musical dialects having a common ancestry in the Christian church and Western musical tradition are reshaping our view of the early history of Christian liturgical music. Thomas Kelly's major study of the Beneventan chant reinstates one of the oldest...
