Anthology for Music in the Renaissance, part of the Western Music in Context series, is the ideal companion to Music in the Renaissance. Twenty-seven carefully chosen works including an isorhythmic motet by Ciconia, an English carol, a Janequin chanson, and lute composition by Ortiz offer representative examples of the genres and composers of the period. Commentaries following each score present a careful analysis of the music, and online links to purchase and download recordings make listening easier than ever. "
I needed this for college and it's a splendid collection. The introductions are wonderful and the footnotes and glosses extremely helpful.
Convenient

I'm taking a shakespeare class, and bringing one of these books to class is much more convenient than carrying the giant onionskin all in one version. The page numbers are of course different, but the pages are laid out exactly the same and contains the same introductory material as the one book version. Definitely worth the extra 15 dollars this version cost, and it looks prettier on my bookshelf.
