Medieval
Music in the Netherlands
Study of ancient and medieval music in the Netherlands
goes back to the late 1930s. For the most part study projects were
initiated by academics from the universities of
Amsterdam
and
Utrecht
(Departments of Musicology). It has led to quite a number of
book publications
[you need ADOBE READER to open the file].
Present Dutch study into Ancient Music and Medieval Music History is
largely in the hands of individuals and is only partially
institutionalized. Present fields of study are:
