Description

The Ars musica attributed to Magister Lambertus/Aristoteles is a landmark treatise on musica plana and musica mensurabilis, offering crucial insight into thirteenth-century musical thought during the transformative period between Johannes de Garlandia and Franco of Cologne. Distinguished by its survival in five manuscript sources-far more than most contemporary music treatises-this Royal Musical Association Monograph from Routledge presents both the fundamentals of liturgical chant practice and foundational principles of musical notation and theory. Lambertus's work stands as a unique scholarly achievement, capturing the intellectual currents of medieval music at a pivotal moment in its development, making it an essential resource for musicologists, historians, and students of classical music studying the evolution of Western musical notation and practice.

Key Features

Lambertus's treatise addresses both musica plana and musica mensurabilis, covering liturgical chant and musical notation in thirteenth-century Europe.

The Ars musica survives in five known manuscript sources, giving it a more substantial textual tradition than most contemporary music theory treatises.

This Royal Musical Association Monograph provides primary source material bridging the musical theories of Johannes de Garlandia and Franco of Cologne.

The work presents practical liturgical chant fundamentals alongside theoretical principles of musical structure and mensural notation.
