Description

Explore the rich history of sixteenth and early seventeenth-century English music with Early English Viols: Instruments, Makers and Music. This award-winning book, winner of the Nicholas Bessaraboff Prize, provides essential historical context for scholars and performers who want to understand the authentic sound of the era. During this period, a high quality of musical repertory was performed on viols. Historical records from Thomas Mace in 1676 suggest that the best way to play this music is with a chest of old English viols, noting specific makers who were considered the best in the world. This book addresses the need for reliable information regarding these instruments and their makers. Whether you are a professional musician, an amateur performer, or a researcher, this text serves as a vital resource. It helps bridge the gap in knowledge regarding the instruments used to perform the great musical works of early England, making it a necessary addition to any collection of music and material culture studies.
