Reviews

'The writing is clear, the scholarship impeccable. This is a valuable addition to the historical musicology literature.' B. J. Murray, Choice 'Rose is on familiar ground here given his prior distinguished work in the field, and he navigates it with great aplomb. He is particularly strong on how composers sought to control the market for their wares by way of printing and publishing.' Tim Carter, Seventeenth-Century News


'The writing is clear, the scholarship impeccable. This is a valuable addition to the historical musicology literature.' B. J. Murray, Choice 'Rose is on familiar ground here given his prior distinguished work in the field, and he navigates it with great aplomb. He is particularly strong on how composers sought to control the market for their wares by way of printing and publishing.' Tim Carter, Seventeenth-Century News 'Rose provides both an investigation of authorship in the period and-even more usefully-an innovative and fruitful starting point for understanding the musical culture of the time ... the book is invaluable in deepening our understanding of seventeenth-century creativity.' Daniel R. Melamed, BACH 'Stephen Rose's important new book on musical authorship in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries answers a lot of questions scholars of Baroque music often struggle with but rarely get around to researching in depth ... Stephen Rose's book will be a standard text for everybody interested in the cultural context of German music in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. It should inspire new ways of thinking about creativity in the early modern period and, the final chapter especially, will challenge established notions of historically informed performance practice.' Markus Rathey, Music & Letters 'Rose offers a fresh perspective on enduring questions asked by performers and historians alike ... insightful and intriguing new study .' Rachel Carpentier, Early Music America
