Music reviews of Dictionary of Medieval and Renaissance Instruments

Music Review: Great teaching tool
Rating: 4 Stars

If you are teaching (or interested in learning about) Medieval and Renaissance musical instruments, this is a valuable tool. It consists of performances of realized or existing pieces from both historical periods using instruments alone and in various authentic combinations with and without voices. I teach Music History at a music conservatory and find that this is a wonderful supplement to Grout/Palisca/Burkholder's A History of Western Music. I use the recording along with a PowerPoint presentation I've created with various images of the instruments being played by modern players and in period iconography. The "Dictionary" also has a nicely detailed booklet with useful supplementary information on the instruments, their uses, and the literature. Most importantly, the performances are high calibre. Fortunately, what it does not do, is have a narrator or a demonstration of instruments playing scales.
