Pioneering work on the musical material from the archives of the
English court was undertaken by Nagel (1894), Lafontaine (1909) and
Stokes (in the Musical Antiquary 1903-1913). Records of English
Court Music (a series of seven volumes covering the period
1485-1714) is the first attempt to compile a systematic calendar of
such references. It aims to revise these earlier studies where
necessary, adding significant details which researchers omitted,
clarifying the context of documents and substituting current
call-marks for defunct references. Volume V is primarily concerned
with the post-Restoration years already partially covered in
volumes I and II. The material from the Exchequer and Declared
Accounts of the Treasurer of the Chamber has been revised to
include references to trumpeters and drummers. Other sections are
devoted to material outside the Lord Chamberlain's papers: the
Signet Office Docquet Books, Secret Service accounts and more from
the Exchequer; the Corporation of Musick (controlled by the Court
musicians) and to the range of music material from accounts of the
Receivers General. Samples from the comprehensive records of the
Lord Steward's department (including those of the Cofferer of the
Household) are also provided. Andrew Ashbee was the winner of the
Oldman Prize in 1987 for Volume II in the series of 'Records of
English Court Music', awarded by the UK branch of the International
Association of Music Libraries for the year's best book on music
librarianship, bibliography and reference.
