Recenzii
immensely valuable, and the edition and notes of the offertories are a veritable gold mine of information that should spur continued and intense study of a repertory that is the most problematic in both the Roman and Gregorian traditions.
a superb achievement... wholly impressive, both in its scope and in its detail. With this book, Maloy establishes herself not only as a major player in chant studies, but also as one of the most dynamic and nimble thinkers in the field, reshaping and redefining many traditional debates. The book is undoubtedly essential, both for serious scholars of chant and for up-coming students, who, no doubt, will appreciate the author's compulsively thorough contextualization and documentation of every subject she touches upon ... the single greatest achievement of Inside the Offertory may be Maloy's ability to challenge and inform a diverse readership equally well, setting the bar impossibly high for all those who will follow.
Inside the Offertory is a very complex book and a review ... cannot do justice to the extraordinary amount of material or to the thoughtful reflections thereupon ... May this major contribution to the study of the offertory inspire similarly detailed books on the other Proper chants of the Mass.
Maloy's clear expository writing and excellent use of tables and transcriptions within the text prevent the reader from becoming overwhelmed by the depth of information she presents.
Inside the Offertory presents a convincing solution to an old puzzle: what kind of relationship does Gregorian chant have with the Old Roman repertory?
This is a book that inspires confidence from the outset ... complex and thoroughly researched ... This publication is sure to find a warm welcome amongst chant scholars everywhere.
