Authorship is a prescient issue for historical musicology and
musicians more widely, while some controversies concerned with
major figures have even reached wider consciousness. Scholars have
clarified some of the issues at stake in recent decades, such as
the places of borrowing and arranging in the creative process and
the wider cultural significance of these practices. The discovery
of new sources and methodologies has also opened up opportunities
for reassessing specific authorship problems. Drawing upon this
wider musicological literature as well as insights from other
disciplines, such as intellectual history and book history, this
book aims to build on what has already been achieved by focusing on
keyboard music. The nine chapters cover case studies of authorship
problems, the socioeconomic conditions of music publishing, the
contributions of composers, arrangers, copyists and music
publishers in creating notated keyboard compositions, the functions
of attribution and ascription, and how the contexts in which
notated pieces were used affected concepts of authorship at
different times and places.
