minstrel: new book

[katriana]

Hi there,

Thought you all might be interested in a new book.

_Music in Medieval Manuscripts_ by Nicolas Bell. 
Published by University of Toronto Press.

"Music was an important element of cultrual life
throughout the Middle Ages.  Most of our knowledge of
medieval music comes from surviving manuscripts,
almost all of them connected in some way with the
church.  this book shows a selection from the British
Library's rich manuscript collection.

The history of music writing is covered from the
earliest times until the fifteenth century, and the
beautiful and often entertaining pictures of musicians
in manuscripts show how music was performed."
