Crucial to understanding the reception of early music in the nineteenth century is an appreciation of the complex plurality of approaches to its performance. In contrast to our received view, musicians seeking to revive the works of Palestrina, Lassus, and contemporaries engaged seriously with the aesthetic and historical complexities of this task. The varied strategies of performers and the ideological factors shaping them are explored via a series of case studies: Thibaut, Zelter, and Vormärz choral societies; Proske, Haberl, Witt, and the Allgemeine Deutsche CäcilienVerein; the arrangements and adaptations of Wagner and others. Fundamental is a broader consideration of the pertinence and value of studying performative reception. © Oxford University Press.
