Book Description
A treasury of music scores featuring the most important and best-known works of the era. Allan Atlas has gathered into one handy volume the scores of over one hundred pieces. Used in conjunction with Renaissance Music or on its own, Anthology of Renaissance Music exposes music lovers to the finest examples of Renaissance composition. Each selection in the anthology--either a complete piece or an entire movement from a longer original--is discussed in Atlas's Renaissance Music.
About The Author
Allan W. Atlas is professor of music at Brooklyn College and the Graduate School, City University of New York.
Reader Reviews
For those who don't read Italian, the preceding review says, A new work of editorship for Renaissance music A new, extremely rich anthology of masterworks (almost 500 pages of music). An indispensible text on the shelf of choir directors, students of ancient music, lovers of polyphony! (I'll post my own review when my copy comes. However, this looks like an excellent selection of stuff--kudos to Amazon for posting the table of contents.)
