' Early Music Review '... an engaging account that will be of interest to music and non-music historians alike, Fisher's 'case for Catholic music' restores a much needed balance to the scholarly literature on early seventeenth-century German lands.' Sixteenth Century Journal 'This book is an outstanding specimen of the growing literature on urban religious and musical life in early modern Europe. It may not yield an entirely straightforward picture of Augsburg's history [...] but Fisher has made a significant, even indispensable, contritution towards that history.'
