Samenvatting

The history of musical improvisation from the late Middle Ages to the early Baroque.
Studying improvised music is always a challenge, due to its volatility and
unpredictability. But what about studying musical improvisation from before
the age of sound recordings? In this book three experts give their view
on aspects of musical improvisation in the late medieval, renaissance, and
early baroque periods. Historical sources show us how improvisation was
an integral part of music education and how closely improvisation and
composition were linked. This gives new insights into the way music was
played in its original historical context and a new way to look at written
scores from the past. 'Improvising Early Music' will appeal to anyone interested
in the historical background of our written musical heritage, and to
musicians who want to gain a deeper insight in the way this music was
created.
