This volume presents a series of important essays by American and
European scholars on some of the problems involved in attempting to
perform music of the late Middle ages. The essays are based on
papers read at a conference held at the New York University Center
for Early Music in 1981 and they concern a varied selection of
aspects of the subject; behind many lies an interest in the
reopened question of how far instruments had a role in performing
secular or sacred music. Among the questions tackled are: the types
of harps found in fourteenth-century Italy, and their probable
uses; the numbers of singers needed (with their ranges) for
fourteenth-century English music; evidence for the use of
instruments in the thirteenth century and for wind articulation in
the late fourteenth; specific performing ensembles of the fifteenth
century, and what they may have sung in a polyphonic Mass.
