The essays, all written by specialists in the field, consider in depth such areas as the growth and development of the 'church' choir, related issues of vocal tessitura, performing pitch, the systems of pronunciation appropriate for Latin- and English-texted music, and the day-to-day training of choristers. There is also an investigation of the local circumstances under which many of the important manuscripts of the period were compiled, which reveals an unsuspectedly close interrelationship between domestic music and music for the church. In addition, a study of surviving sources reveals that they give little more than a general guide as to their composers' and copyists' intentions. 410 0$aCambridge studies in performance practice ;$v5. 606 $aChoral music$zEngland 606 $aPerformance practice (Music)$zEngland 606 $aChoirs (Music)$zEngland 606 $aChurch music$zEngland 606 $aLatin language$xChurch Latin$xPronunciation 606 $aEnglish language$yEarly modern, 1500-1700$xPronunciation 606 $aEnglish language$yMiddle English, 1100-1500$xPronunciation 615 0$aChoral music 615 0$aPerformance practice (Music) 615 0$aChoirs (Music) 615 0$aChurch music 615 0$aLatin language$xChurch Latin$xPronunciation. 615 0$aEnglish language$xPronunciation. 615 0$aEnglish language$xPronunciation. 676 $a782.5/0942 702 $aMorehen$b John 712 02$aAmerican Council of Learned Societies. 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996248287303316 996 $aEnglish choral practice 1400-1650$92316821 997 $aUNISA
