Description:
Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1991.. 1st edition. "This first volume begins with the settlement of the North German peoples and the cultivation of church music following the mission of St Augustine in 597. Relations between France and England form the background to the account of medieval music after the Norman Conquest, and the growth of a distinct national style is then traced from the early fifteenth century through the Tudor period and that of the Reformation, to the outstanding achievements of Elizabethan and Stuart England. The arrival of Handel is related to the period of experimentation following Purcell's death in 1695 and the volume concludes with his decision to remain and the end of the Stuart monarchy." Pp.xviii/691, over 200 musical examples and sixteen pages of plates. Blue cloth, dustwrapper has slight sunning to spine but is now in a removable clear protective wrap. A heavy volume (over 3lbs) which may require extra to send overseas. VG/VG.
