Recenzii

This welcome new edition is bigger, better, and more up to date in both discussion and resources cited. It helps the seventeenth century to emerge--deservedly--as almost a separate era within the Baroque, and the chapters by so many outstanding scholar-performers make it altogether indispensible!--Ross W. Duffin, Fynette H. Kulas Professor of Music, Case Western Reserve University

"This new edition...is an invaluable resource for both amateur and professional performers as well as scholars and anyone else interested in the fascinating world of seventeenth-century music. Stewart Carter's original volume...has been significantly enhanced by Jeffery Kite-Powell.--Jeffrey Kurtzman, Professor of Music, Washington University in St. Louis" --Jeffrey Kurtzman, Professor of Music, Washington University in St. Louis--Jeffrey Kurtzman, Professor of Music, Washington University in St. Louis
