Music reviews & criticism; Early music (up to c 1000 CE); Medieval & Renaissance music (c 1000 to c 1600); Baroque music (c 1600 to c 1750); Classical music (c 1750 to c 1830); Medieval history

Our knowledge of medieval music - from the dramatic and melodic riches of the thirteenth century to such highlights of the fifteenth century as the pieces in the Old Hall Manuscript - rests almost wholly on the existence of the manuscripts that have survived. Many illuminated manuscripts similarly contain detailed depictions of musicians with their instruments providing a valuable source of reference for performers today. A lively introduction to all aspects of medieval music for anyone who enjoys listening to works of the period.
