Music in the Middle Ages: A Reference Guide by Suzanne Lord
English | 30 Sept. 2008 | ISBN: 0313338841 | 216 Pages | PDF | 4 MB

Music both influences and reflects the times in which it was created. In the Middle Ages, the previous Dark Ages, the Crusades, and the feudal system all impacted the types and forms of music in the period. Charlemagne standardized the church mass and promoted the Gregorian chant, to the point of threatening excommunication if any other were performed.
