Music in the Medieval WorldPrentice-Hall, 1965 - 182 páginas An introduction to the music of the Middle Ages which bridges the gap between the labors of musicians on the practical side and the monuments of national organization erected by the thinkers of the age. The compositions, though important as reflections of musical taste of the period, can only be fully understood and enjoyed if all the reasons for the shape in which they exist, both technical and esthetic, are comprehended. This then is the author's hope for the reader of this book. |
