EARLY MUSIC HISTORY 5

Studies in Medieval and Early Modern Music

edited J J I A I N F E N L O N 5

This volume of Early Music History continues the pattern established by its
four predecessors, with a strong emphasis on archival and historical work
and a keen interest in the social history of music. The contents cover a wide
chronological range stretching from the early medieval period to the first
decades of the seventeenth century. Three essays deal with the early middle
ages; one discusses the changing role of the office of cantor in the Western
church, another concentrates on three new sources (all palimpsests) of the
Old Beneventan chant, and a third discusses the complex of musical,
ceremonial, architectural and political concerns involved in the re-
construction of the abbey church of St. Denis that took place in the
thirteenth century. Other articles present studies of Cardinal Ippolito I
d'Este's patronage of music and his connections with Adrian Willaert; music
composed for the ceremonies of the Order of the Golden Fleece (particularly
during the period of Philip the Fair), and of Caterina Martinelli's con-
nections with Monteverdi. Source studies are represented by discussion of a
newly-identified portion of Tinctoris's important treatise De inventione, and
philological work by a detailed re-examination of the relationship of perfect
and imperfect time in Italian renaissance theory. The reviews section
includes consideration of a major collection of essays by a distinguished
scholar ofltalian medieval and renaissance music. As with its predecessors,
Early Music History is illustrated and contains music examples.
