Richard Freedman's Music in the Renaissance shows how music and
other forms of expression were adapted to changing tastes and
ideals in Renaissance courts and churches. Giving due weight to
sacred, secular, and instrumental genres, Freedman invites readers
to consider who made music, who sponsored and listened to it, who
preserved and owned it, and what social and aesthetic purposes it
served. While focusing on broad themes such as music and the
literary imagination and the art of improvisation, he also
describes Europeans' musical encounters with other cultures and
places. Western Music in Context: A Norton History comprises six
volumes of moderate length, each written in an engaging style by a
recognized expert. Authoritative and current, the series examines
music in the broadest sense as sounds notated, performed, and heard
focusing not only on composers and works, but also on broader
social and intellectual currents."
