A Cambridge organist and musicologist gathers every Shakespearean passage touching on music and explains it: technical terms and instruments such as viols and recorders, musical education, songs and singing, dances like the passamezzo, music in taverns and on stage, and the many puns that only make sense to a musician of the period.

An illuminating companion for readers, actors and directors of Shakespeare. Download the free EPUB.
