For a comparative approach which successfully encapsulates one crucial essence of the Renaissance, it has wider appeal still. --Classical.net<p><br> Rodin's approach has considerable merit and allows us to see, and to hear, Josquin in a refreshingly new light. He does so with a readable writing style, a generous helping of tables...and almost 90 musical examples. A feature that adds immeasurably to the value and <br>usefulness of the book is that companion recordings of many of the works discussed in the text can be accessed on a dedicated companion website (username and password <br>provided in the book). --Early Music America<p><br> <br> A masterful and musically insightful exposition of the music of Josquin's early maturity and that of a generation of composers that changed the course of European music.
