Early Music History is devoted to the study of music from the early Middle Ages to the end of the seventeenth century. The scope is exceptionally broad and includes manuscript studies, textual criticism, iconography, studies of the relationship between words and music, and the relationship between music and society. The journal gives preference to studies pursuing interdisciplinary approaches and to those developing new methodological ideas. Articles in volume 19 include: Ritual and Ceremony in the Spanish Royal Chapel, c. 1559-c.1561; Urban Minstrels in Late Medieval Southern France; Royal Image-Making and Textual Interplay in Gilbert Banaster's O Maria et Elizabeth; Mapping the Soundscapes: Church Music in English Towns 1450-1550; A New Look at Old-Roman Chant.
