Aspects of Early English Keyboard Music before c.1630

Beschreibung

English keyboard music reached an unsurpassed level of sophistication in the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries as organists treated it as seriously as vocal music. This book draws together important research on the music, its sources and the instruments on which it was played.
