Description

Northern France and the Low Countries formed the crucible of Europe's most sophisticated music in the later Middle Ages. That music and its makers were sought from France to Italy and Bohemia. Focusing on the rich musical institution of one wealthy medieval church, this book reveals the values and social structures that shaped its cultivation.
