This book is aimed at the general music-lover and person beginning a study of music. It covers the history of music from 'Sumer is icumen in' in the thirteenth century up to the latest developments in electronic music and other modern techniques. The work of the great composers from Byrd in the Elizabethan era to Stravinsky in our own is illuminated wherever possible by a consideration of the political, literary, religious and other events that affect the ways in which composers work. Equally important is how the music was performed in different periods, for methods and instruments continually evolve. Not only the classics but the modern musical theatre, jazz and rock come within the author's view. Nearly all the compositions chosen for discussion are readily available to the listener on gramophone record, and an ability to read music is not necessary for the enjoyment of this book.
