Concerned with the growth and development of the art of liturgical music and the circumstances under which it was written and performed, this book shows English church music as part of the far wider pattern of western European musical culture and examines the effect upon it of such great continental movements as the Renaissance and Baroque. The author seeks to project it against its religious, political, economic and social background, and to trace the parallel developments in parish music and organ building.
