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.
Another theme concerns the various different ways in which
particular songs have their impact on the next generations. Yet
another concerns the authorshop of poems that were set to music by
Binchois and Ciconia in particular. A group of essays on Josquin
were parerga to the author's edition of his four-voice secular
music for the New Josquin Edition (2005) and to his monograph on
the composer (2009).
