Description

This collection of nineteen essays presents a broad spectrum of current research that will interest students of medieval music, history, or culture.

Topics include a comparison of early chant transmission in Rome and Jerusalem; the relationship between the earliest chant notation and prosodic accents; conceptualizing rhythm in medieval music and poetry; the persistence of Guidonian organum in the later Middle Ages; a connection between Dante and St.

Cecilia; and the development of the trecento madrigal.

The essays, written by distinguished scholars, stem from a conference in honor of David G.

Hughes, professor of medieval music at Harvard University and noted specialist of chant.
