The musical achievements of the so-called `Franco-Flemish School'
have attracted many writers, yet Bruges itself has still to be put
back on the map of European music history. This book describes how
the people of Bruges shaped their acoustic environment and gave
musical expression to their spiritual needs. It is based on a
scrutiny of musical sources, stylistic trends in music, composers'
achievements, and the function of musical genres; all these are
seen against a reconstruction, from archival sources, of the
socio-economic context of the art of music - an art which, in all
its various manifestations, `high' and `low', sacred and secular,
courtly and civic, polyphonic and monophonic, mirrors later
medieval urban culture as a whole.
