The experience of music performance is always far more than the sum of its sounds, and evidence for playing and singing techniques is not only inscribed in music notation but can also be found in many other types of documents and materials. This volume of essays presents a cross-section of new research on performance issues in medieval and renaissance music. The subject is approached from a broad perspective, drawing on complementary disciplines such as dance history, art history, music iconography and performance traditions from beyond western Europe. In doing so, the volume continues some of the many lines of enquiry pursued by its dedicatee, Timothy J. McGee, over a lifetime of scholarship devoted to practical questions of playing and singing early music.
Maureen Epp, Ph.D., has taught at the University of Toronto and at Conrad Grebel College, University of Waterloo. Her published research includes articles on French popular song and German vernacular religious song from the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries. Brian E. Power is Associate Professor of Music at Brock University, Canada. He has published on manuscript transmission and performance-practice issues associated with polyphonic liturgical music of the fifteenth century, with a specific focus on the introit repertory in the Trent Codices.
