Medieval Music by Richard H. Hoppin surveys the history and
development of music in the Western world from its roots in early
Christian liturgy up to the initial glimmerings of the Renaissance
in the fifteenth century. Hoppin considers the sources and uses of
monophonic chant, the development of increasingly complex
polyphony, and the earliest surviving examples of secular songs and
dances. Covering both national styles and major composers, Medieval
Music provides a thorough overview of music's earliest recorded
history. A companion anthology is available that includes scores
for many of the examples discussed in the book. This is a volume
from The Norton Introduction to Music History, presenting the music
of the Western world to the nonspecialist in six volumes. In each
one, an outstanding musicologist surveys the music of a specific
period, discusses its major composers, and examines the forces that
influenced and helped shape their works. The series is part of the
tradition of excellence in musical scholarship that Norton has
established in this field.
