Ebook: A Correspondence of Renaissance Musicians

This book is a collection of letters between Bolognese music theorist Giovanni Spataro (c. 1459-1541) and his main correspondents, Giovanni del Lago and Pietro Aron. The 110 letters, which survive in the Biblioteca Apostolica Vaticana and the Bibliotheque Nationale, offer a vivid insight into the intellectual world of a group of sixteenth-century music theorists and performing musicians living in Italy.
