Anthology for Music in the Renaissance, part of the Western Music in
Context series, is the ideal companion to Music in the Renaissance.
Twenty-seven carefully chosen works--including an isorhythmic motet by
Ciconia, an English carol, a Janequin chanson, and lute composition by
Ortiz--offer representative examples of the genres and composers of the
period. Commentaries following each score present a careful analysis of
the music, and online links to purchase and download recordings make
listening easier than ever.
