Interpreting the Musical Past: Early Music in Nineteenth-Century France

by Katharine Ellis

This study of the French early music revival gives us a vivid sense of how music's cultural meanings were contested in the nineteenth century. It surveys the main patterns of revivalist activity while also providing in-depth studies of repertories stretching from Adam de la Halle to Rameau.
