Cantigas de Santa Maria of Alfonso
X, el Sabio A Performing edition Volume 1 – Prologue to
Cantiga 100 This
series (four volumes in all) contains new transcriptions of the famous
Cantigas de Santa Maria of Alfonso X, el Sabio. The transcriptions are
based chiefly on the Escorial 'Codice Princeps' manuscript (E1).
Each cantiga is printed with the note-shapes from the manuscript above
the modern notation to aid the understanding of the period notation.
This also allows performers to develop their own transcriptions for
performance. 190
pages sewn-paperback with Introduction, appendices and 15 illustrations
from the manuscript. 254mm x 178mm. ISBN
978-0-9552440-7-0 (3rd Edition) Price: £ 18.50 plus p&p
