Trade Review
This is a work of prodigious scholarship displaying a mastery of sources and bibliography and bringing together analyses of liturgy and texts as well as of musical form, thus illuminating the exegetical enterprise underlying the Hispanic rite. * Don Randel, President and Professor of Music Emeritus, The University of Chicago *
With this exhaustive and authoritative account of the vespertinus genre, Raquel Rojo Carrillo offers fresh insight into the chant of the Old Hispanic rite, revealing its inner workings through painstaking analysis that constitutes a model for future research. * Susan Boynton, Professor of Music, Columbia University *
