This volume is the result of new research into such key figures as the composers Tobias Hume, William Kinloch, Patrick MacCrimmon and John Forbes; it looks at the important manuscripts, imported French and Italian music, burgh and ceremonial music, secular songs and their texts, and the psalm singing that dominated public life.
