Beschreibung
Until the advent of the great lieder writers of Germany, England had a heritage of song reckoned to be the richest in Europe. Much of this material has disappeared, however this book aims to present some of the best-known folk- and art- songs of 1250-1700.
Reliquary Of English Song - Volume 1 is a fantastic collection of over 50 traditional English songs and tunes that also includes a wealth of text, illustrations, diagrams and notes that help to explain the collection and examples, and to fill the gaps in the history. A excellant research resource or simply as a rare repertory.
