In his dedication of 20th June 1608 to Count Scripo Nascica Fantagucci, the printer Alessandro Rauerij emphasized that his collection contains some of the most outstanding works by the most modern and prominent musicians, and we do in fact find names such as Giovanni Gabrieli and Girolamo Frescobaldi, and also the other masters we have reprinted were famous far beyound their day. Accidentals above the notes are editor's suggestions. In the parts, the tenor has been printed three times: in the alto, the octave treble and the normal treble clef. The canzonas can be played on any instruments, and consorts of fiddles, viols, recorders, as well as lutes and guitars are especially suitable.

This beautiful and tentative work for viol consort is based on a Purcell Fantasia of the same name. Occasionally, and to great effect, Bryars enhances the rich, romantic sound of bowed viols with the use of pizzicato and harmonics, highlighting the distance between this mesmerising piece and its origin.

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.
