The five three part (SSB) and nine four part (SSTB) dances in this edition represent the complete surviving consort music of Maurice Webster. Webster, a skilled composer with a distinctive style, appears to have been the main catalyst for introducing the 'string quartet' scoring in dance music to England in the 1620s. The development of this idiom had a significant impact on the music of his contemporaries such as Simon Ives, Charles Coleman and William Lawes, who fully embraced it by the 1630s.

Though Byrd's In nomine settings for consort were probably the first of his works to circulate widely, the dating of his consort music in general is problematical. The famous 'Browning' variations are probably an early display of the composer's mastery of the form. The only complete Fantasia a 4 is found in the Psalmes, Songs & Sonnets of 1611. Two other examples are reconstructed from fragmentary sources, and appear in this volume with hymn-settings and Misereres, two pavans and a galliard.

Complementing their achievements as composers of Italianate vocal music represented elsewhere in the series, this volume brings together consort works by two English Catholics who left England for the continent. Philips belonged to a generation that focused on stylised dance rather than fantasia, and many of his five-part consort dances exist also as keyboard pieces. Dering was born a generation later. Whereas his five-part fantasias were core repertoire for early 17th-century viol players, interest in the stylised dance had by then begun to wane. Several of Dering's pavans and almaines survive in a single source only, and lack outer parts, which have been completed by the editor.

No comprehensive collection of British music would be complete without reference to the outstanding achievement of Matthew Locke, most idiosyncratic and arguably the most original of Restoration composers before Purcell. This first of two chamber music volumes contains duos for two bass viols, the consort of two viols, the Little Consort and the Flat Consort of rugged chromatic music.

The first of three volumes presenting the surviving instrumental music of Alfonso Ferrabosco the Younger. Contrapuntally sophisticated, his fantasias were admired throughout Europe and laid the foundations for the development of 17th-century English consort music. A complete recording of the four-part fantasias is available through the New England Chapter of the Viola da Gamba Society of America.

Bach's flute music brought to a successful end
ISBN 9790004503119. 9 x 12 inches.
Perhaps Bach actually did allow himself to be swept away by Telemann's enthusiasm for the Flute traversiere, the Baroque transverse flute, for which he wrote a whole series of pieces, including the Trio Sonata in G major BWV 1039. With the Urtext edition of the sonata, which presumably is the arrangement of a lost first version for two violins and basso continuo, Breitkopf adds the finishing touches to the series of Bach's Complete Flute Works edited by the renowned flutist Barthold Kuijken. In the publication's textual segments, Kuijken takes a comprehensive look at the various sources and versions. Also very useful for performance practice are the unique characteristics found among musicians who are particularly knowledgeable in early music.The continuo has been realized by Ewald Demeyere, taking contemporary treatises into account.A clear, informative and utterly practical edition of this much loved and important trio sonata. The musical typeface here is extremely clear and of a sensible size. Slurs, additional ornaments and annotations are precise and non-invasive, page turns are practical and the separate bass also includes figures.(Lisa Beznosiuk, The Consort)Bach's flute music brought to a successful end.
