MUSIC FROM THE EARLIEST NOTATIONS TO THE SIXTEENTH CENTURY

Richard Taruskin

The vernacular genres, too, were undergoing significant change in the later fifteenth century, in stylistic terms aiming both higher and lower than before, and making many new points of contact across the generic and stylistic boundaries.
