Unmasked

Lost Music for the 1613 Palatine Wedding Masques

Beschreibung

Author Ross W. Duffin reconstructs lost music for the three famous masques by Thomas Campion, George Chapman, and Francis Beaumont performed for the 1613 Palatine wedding. His research reveals that their songs were partsongs performed by an ensemble, rather than an accompanied solo singer. The book also includes a fourth masque, in French, prepared for the wedding but never performed.
