Book Synopsis The Book of Requiems, 1450-1550 by : David Burn
Book excerpt: Reference work for musicologists, music theorists, performers, and music lovers Few western musical repertories speak more to the imagination than the Requiem mass for the dead. The Book of Requiems presents in-depth essays on the most important works in this tradition, from the origins of the genre up to the present day. Each chapter is devoted to a specific Requiem, and offers both historical information and a detailed work-discussion. Conceived as a multi-volume essay collection by leading experts, TheBook of Requiems is an authoritative reference publication intended as a first port of call for musicologists, music theorists, and performers both professional and student.
