English comedy from the fifteenth to the early seventeenth century
abounds in song lyrics, but most of the original tunes were thought
to have been lost-until now. By deducing that playwrights borrowed
melodies from songs they already knew, Ross W. Duffin has used the
existing English repertory of songs, both popular and composed, to
reconstruct hundreds of songs from more than a hundred plays and
other stage entertainments. Thanks to Duffin's incredible
breakthrough, these plays have been rendered performable with
period music for the first time in five hundred years. Some Other
Note not only brings these songs back from the dead, but tells a
thrilling tale of the investigations that unraveled these
centuries-old mysteries.
