The playtext, anonymously adapted from Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream, is printed in full, and the role of the various sources, and the relationship of the manuscript theatre score to the printed word-books of 1692 and 1693, are thoroughly reappraised. The other sources include music manuscripts which have not previously been examined, and which prove to have a significant bearing on the musical text. Full account is taken of the varied instrumental resources and conventions accessible to the Restoration composer.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Stainer \u0026 Bell","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32598586949711,"sku":"PE12","price":112.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0900\/1828\/files\/f72ea651e1411dfa64dbedb63e244f9c.jpg?v=1750860855","url":"https:\/\/www.ficksmusic.com\/zh\/products\/purcell-the-fairy-queen-stainer","provider":"Ficks Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
