Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This three volume study examines Shakespeare's use of music, the performed music in the histories, tragedies, and comedies. By the term "use of music" the author means the dramatic functions served by the performed music in those productions of the plays occurring between 1590 and 1615. This includes the manner of performance, the original music scores or notation used (when possible), and the significance of these data to peripheral problems of interpretation, text, staging, and stage history. This study attempts to meet the interests of students of Elizabethan music, drama in performance, and literature, as well as the producers of Shakespeare faced with practical problems. One of the more remarkable characteristics of the English Renaissance is the sense of kinship and close relationship of the arts, and the alert eye for the practical -- an ethos that should guide producers in any time and place.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1963. When originally published this book was the first to treat at full length the contribution which music makes to Shakespeare's great tragedies, among them Hamlet, Othello, and King Lear. Here the playwright's practices are studied in conjunction with those of his contemporaries: Marlowe and Jonson, Marston and Chapman. From these comparative assessments there emerges the method that is peculiar to Shakespeare: the employment of song and instrumental music to a degree hitherto unknown, and their use as an integral part of the dramatic structure.

Book excerpt: This unique and comprehensive study examines how music affects Shakespeare's plays and addresses the ways in which contemporary audiences responded to it. David Lindley sets the musical scene of Early Modern England, establishing the kinds of music heard in the streets, the alehouses, private residences and the theatres of the period and outlining the period's theoretical understanding of music. Focusing throughout on the plays as theatrical performances, this work analyzes the ways Shakespeare explores and exploits the conflicting perceptions of music at the time and its dramatic and thematic potential.
