- As the first study of the fundamentals of music education in the eighteenth century, this 160,000 word monograph aims to recover an entirely forgotten art of melody. The fourteen chapters are founded upon nine years of original research, involving travel to archives in Italy and the USA and the transcription of hundreds of previously overlooked manuscripts. The bibliography includes 1,200 primary sources from 98 archives and 16 countries.
