Medieval music in its cultural, social, and intellectual contexts.
Margot Fassler's Music in the Medieval West
imaginatively reconstructs the repertoire of the Middle Ages by drawing
on a wide range of sources. In addition to highlighting the ceremonial
and dramatic functions of medieval music (both sacred and secular), she
pays special attention to the exchange of musical ideas, the development
of musical notation and other methods of transmission, and the role of
women in musical culture.
Western Music in Context: A Norton History
comprises six volumes of moderate length, each written in an engaging
style by a recognized expert. Authoritative and current, the series
examines music in the broadest sense―as sounds notated, performed, and
heard―focusing not only on composers and works, but also on broader
social and intellectual currents.
