In considering the role of practical music in education this book
explores the art of performance in Germany during the Baroque period.
The author examines the large number of surviving treatises and
instruction manuals used in the Lutheran schools during the period
1530-1800 and builds up a picture of the function and status of music in
both school and church. This understanding of music as a functional
art-- musica practica--in turn gives us insight into contemporary
performance of the sacred work of Praetorius, Schutz, Buxtehude or Bach.
