Recenzii
"Angel Song offers a fresh perspective and a number of exciting new directions in both content and methodology. Colton’s research is meticulous and she makes interpretive arguments clearly and persuasively" — James Maiello, NABMSBA Reviews (North American British Music Studies Association)
"A masterful account of the medieval history of English music" —James Cook, Music and Letters, 2017
"Colton shows how a re-evaluation of primary source material can chip away at long-held assumptions about English music and medieval musical culture" — Samantha Blickhan, Early Music, 2018
"Angel Song is as much a book about the practice of musicology as it is about one specific musicological topic, and will prove to be an invaluable learning text for young scholars working on medieval sources, no matter what their provenance may be" — Samantha Blickhan, Early Music, 2018

Descriere
Angel song: Medieval English music in history examines the ways in which the standard narratives of English musical history have been crafted, from the Middle Ages to the present. Colton challenges the way in which the concept of a canon of English music has been built around a handful of pieces (notably ‘Sumer is icumen in’), composers (John Dunstaple), and practices (the contenance angloise), each of which offer opportunities for a reappraisal of English musical and devotional cultures between 1250 and 1460.
