Description: Fourteenth-century France witnessed the emergence of a new school of lyric, as the so-called formes fixes crystallized and the Ars nova revolutionised musical practice. Charting the emergence of this new lyric order from circa 1300 to circa 1380, 'The Art of Grafted Song' demonstrates that, despite these new departures, the long-established principle of borrowing within French lyric continued to inspire poets and composers.
