Most of the seventy-one works have been freshly transcribed, and
all have been newly engraved for this collection.
In choosing the works for inclusion in this collection, many of
which have been available in a modern edition, Professor Hoppin
ranged widely throughout the gamut of medieval music forms. For
example, all the movements for the Solemn Mass of Easter Day are
offered along with typical troubadour and trouvere works. Examples
of sequence, clausula, organum, and conductus are presented
together with Latin and English love songs, motets, rondeaux, and
ballate. The result is a history of medieval music in itself. there
ar no snippets or frustrating samples, but only complete works or
at least integral movements of larger works. All the characteristic
styles of the period are represented, and text translations
accompany each work."
