The Cambridge Companion to Medieval Music
From the emergence of plainsong to the end of the fourteenth century, this Companion covers all the key aspects of medieval music. Rather than presenting merely a chronological view of the
history of medieval music, the volume instead focuses on technical and cultural aspects of the subject. In nineteen chapters, seventeen world-leading scholars give a perspective on the music of
the Middle Ages that will serve as a point of orientation for the informed listener and reader; the book is a must-have guide for anyone with an interest in listening to and understanding
medieval music.
