IV: Fifty Seventeenth-Century Songs
edited by Kenneth Elliott
This volume contains part of a ‘lost repertory’ of Scots song, hidden since the seventeenth century in instrumental and often tablature arrangements for lute, cittern and lyra-viol, now reconstructed and published for the first time. There are also examples of lute song, consort song and continuo song in a mixture of Scottish and international styles.
