Early Music History

Early Music History is devoted to the study of music from the early Middle Ages to the end of the seventeenth century. The scope is exceptionally broad and includes manuscript studies, textual criticism, iconography, studies of the relationship between words and music, and the relationship between music and society. The journal gives preference to studies pursuing interdisciplinary approaches and to those developing new methodological ideas. Articles in volume 17 include: ‘The Sforza Restoration and the Founding of the Ducal Chapels at Santa Maria della Scala in Milan and Sant Ambrogio Vigevano’, ‘Musical Aspects of Old Testament Canticles in their Biblical Setting’, ‘Modal Discourse and Fourteenth-Century French Song: A ‘Medieval’ Perspective Recovered?’, ‘O Rex Mundi Triumphator: Hohenstaufen Politics in a Sequence for Saint Charlemagne’.
