Melanie Spiller (melaniespiller) | 1 comments If you're writing or reading about European history, you'll want a sound track. Read my blog (posted approximately weekly) to find out who was listening to what!

This week's post is about Peter Philips, a 16th century British composer who fled to the Continent in order to continue practicing his faith. Even so, and despite a lot of influence from the lands he visited, he's still one of the biggest names in British music. Read about him here: http://coloraturaconsulting.wordpress...

Gary Inbinder | 55 comments Thanks for posting! This is useful info. for both readers and writers. I usually make some reference to period pieces in my writing and imagine "background music" when conceptualizing a scene--a ball for example, or a parade, a concert, a country dance, etc.
