| Publisher Description: The first part of this volume presents first-hand accounts of individual ancient musicians, singers, instrumentalists, conductors, both men and women.The second part presents much background information on those wandering musicians of the late Middle Ages who formed a single musical language in Europe, the Jongleurs, Minstrels, Troubadours, Minnesingers and Goliards.The musicians described in this volume are forgotten by history, but they created and passed on our musical culture. |
