A selection of essays that draws the focus towards individual composers of the 'long' fifteenth century and what we can learn about their songs. It includes essays on the secular works of composers from Ciconia and Oswald von Wolkenstein via Binchois, Ockeghem, Busnoys and Regis to Josquin, and Henry VIII and Petrus Alamire.
This second selection of essays by David Fallows draws the focus towards individual composers of the ''long'' fifteenth century and what we can learn about their songs. In twenty-one essays on the secular works of composers from Ciconia and Oswald von Wolkenstein via Binchois, Ockeghem, Busnoys and Regis to Josquin, Henry VIII and Petrus Alamire, one repeated theme is how a consideration of the songs can help the way to a broader understanding of a composer''s output. Since there are more song sources and more individual pieces now available for study, there are more handles for dating, for geographical location and for social alignment.
