Restoration Cathedral Music, 1660-1714

Ian Spink, a leading authority on seventeenth-century English music, has carried out a remarkable new investigation of the musical sources of the Restoration period, and of the archives of every cathedral and choral foundation. For the first time, perhaps, the true character and shape of this period of musical history is revealed, taking in the work of the great men of the age, including Purcell, Locke, and Handel, and many lesser masters such as Humfrey, Blow, Clarke, Weldon, and Croft.Spink, Ian is the author of 'Restoration Cathedral Music, 1660-1714' with ISBN 9780198161493 and ISBN 0198161492.
