Addressing questions about the musical life in English nunneries in the later Middle Ages, Yardley pieces together a mosaic of nunnery musical life, where even the smallest convents sang the monastic offices on a daily basis and many of the larger houses celebrated the late medieval liturgy in all of its complexity.
ANNE BAGNALL YARDLEY is Associate Professor of Music and Associate Academic Dean at Drew Theological School, USA.
