The Science and Art of Renaissance Music
James Haar
Spanning three decades, this selection of articles by the distinguished scholar James Haar forms an ideal introduction to his studies into 16th century musical culture and society, including its critical concerns and theory, and the development of the Italian madrigal. Sections examine the work and influence of important figures such as Gioseffo Zarlino, Antonfrancesco Doni and the Neapolitan madrigalist Giovanthomaso Cimello. The collection concludes with two intriguing essays on the reception of Renaissance music in the 19th century.
