The Historical Dictionary of English Music seeks to identify and
briefly annotate a wide range of subjects relating to English musical
culture, largely from the early 15th century through 1958, dates that
reflect the coalescence of an identifiable English style in the early
Renaissance and the death of the iconic Ralph Vaughan Williams in the
mid-20th century. This book is an excellent access point for students,
researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about English music.
