Angel Song: Medieval English Music in History (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Angel song: Medieval English music in history examines the ways in which the standard narratives of English musical history have been crafted, from the Middle Ages to the present. Colton challenges the way in which the concept of a canon of English music has been built around a handful of pieces (notably 'Sumer is icumen in'), composers (John Dunstaple), and practices (the contenance angloise), each of which offer opportunities for a reappraisal of English musical and devotional cultures between 1250 and 1460.
