Madrigals by English Composers of the Close of the Fifteenth Century (1893)

Madrigals By English Composers Of The Close Of The Fifteenth Century is a book written by Charles William Pearce and published in 1893. The book contains a collection of madrigals, which are a type of secular vocal music that was popular in the Renaissance era. The madrigals included in this book were composed by English composers at the end of the fifteenth century, a time when English music was undergoing a period of significant change and development. The book includes an introduction by the author, which provides historical and cultural context for the music, as well as information about the composers and their works. The madrigals themselves are presented in their original notation, with translations of the lyrics provided in modern English. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of English music or the development of the madrigal as a musical form.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
