Buch, David J. 2023 1-4955-1163-4 200 pages "In establishing my aims, I have concentrated on four I believe to be of highest priority:
(1) Characterize this musical repertory and place it in its historical context.
(2) Review past scholarship on this music, identifying controversies and accounting for inaccuracies and
misperceptions.
(3) Establish principles for musical performance practice.
(4) Provide a reliable edition of selected representative works (based on the best possible sources) suitable for both
scholarly study and practical performance, describing the sources and discussing their respective primacy, use and
notation."
