Music for Elizabethan lutes

THIS IS WRONG - PLEASE SEE LONG COPY This work is a scholarly edition of a mid-sixteenth-century manuscript in the Osborn collection at the Beinecke Library in Yale. The manuscript comprises an important and hitherto unpublished collection of music for lute, gittern, and guitar, written in tabulature. John Ward, with scrupulousattention to detail, has transcribed this music into modern notation and has provided a substantial introduction and commentary. The material will be of obvious interest to lutenists, to whom a valuable body of music now becomes available. There is much, moreover, to interest literary historians of the period, with insights into the development of popular verse and music, particularly in connection with the use of balladtunes. Professor Ward has gained an international reputation for his work on lute music and on early dance and popular music. This important edition will be regarded as an original and distinguished contribution to Elizabethan Studies.
