Reviews

In this book some of the best minds in current musicology explore untrodden territory. They show that the classic source study and the traditional methods of musical analysis are not only alive and kicking, but generating new rich ideas -- some of them controversial, all of them stimulating. --Nicholas Temperley, professor emeritus of musicology, University of Illinois, and author of Bound for America: Three British Composers
*.*

Striding onto the stage of the 'New Musicology', the seventeen contributors to Historical Musicology proceed to kick in the footlights. Out of the broken glass, they manage to create an approach to the scholarly study of music that recognises that musical scholarship [whatever its methodological imperatives] remains rooted in the study of primary sources, and go on to demonstrate brilliantly how the benefits of the 'New' can be combined with the 'Old'.
*Mark Everist, professor of music, University of Southampton*
