Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The English Madrigal School: A Guide to Its Practical Use

This was the period during which, according to Thomas Morley himself, anyone unable to take part at sight in a Madrigal or in a consort of viols was considered to fall below the standard of a gentlemanly education.
