I take you mean	McGee, Timothy J., A. G. Rigg and David N. Klausner, eds.
_Singing Early Music: the Pronunciation of European Languages in the Late
Middle Ages and Renaissance _ (comes with CD)	?? I understand it will
help you with the pronunciation of this music in the original languages.
It's later than my main interest, though I would like to take a look at
this one myself.

 If you are at all interested in Minnesang,
McMahon, James V ._The Music of Early Minnesang,_ Camden House, Columbia,
SC, 1990.  is very good on performance.

I get most of my books of this sort via ILL and have to give them back, but
I have copied many chunks;-)
