This book deals with music from the later sixteenth century, the period on which Ignace Bossuyt, a professor at the Musicology Department of the University of Leuven who retured in 2007 and an internationally recognized leader in the field of later-sixteenth-century music, focused his research. Subjects discussed include newly discovered music by Philippe de Monte and Heinrich Isaac, humor in the motets of Orlando di Lasso, the beginnings of music history, compositional procedures in Renaissance music, and Tinctoris's art of listening. This book offers a wide range of methods including historiography, reception studies, source studies, music analysis, music theory, style studies, and aesthetics of music.
Mark Delaere is Professor and Head of the department of Musicology at the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven. Pieter Bergé is Professor of Music Analysis, History, and Theory (1750-1900) at the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven.
