Summary of The End of Early Music: A Period Performer's History of Music for the Twenty-First Century
Part history, part explanation of early music, this book also plays devil's advocate, criticizing current practices and urging experimentation. Haynes, a veteran of the movement, describes a vision of the future that involves improvisation, rhetorical expression, and composition. Written for musicians and non-musicians alike.History & Criticism Books
