Este libro explora las imitaciones de Orlando di Lasso de Magnificats para la contrarreforma en Múnich. David Crook se centra en los cuarenta Magnificats de parodia o imitación, que Lasso basó en motetes, madrigales y canciones escritas por compositores como Josquin y Rore. Al examinar estos Magnificats en sus contextos sociales, históricos y litúrgicos y en términos de teoría de la composición, Crook abre una nueva ventana a la amplitud y sutileza de un compositor importante a menudo juzgado con dureza por su uso de música preexistente.
David Crook was a British communist who spent most of his life teaching in China. A committed Marxist from 1931, he joined the International Brigades to fight against the Spanish nationalists in the Spanish Civil War (1936–1939). After being wounded in combat, he was recruited by the NKVD, the Soviet secret police, and was sent to China during the Second Sino-Japanese War (1937–1945). There he met and married his wife, Isabel, a teacher and social activist. Following the Second World War and the Chinese Civil War, the couple stayed in China and taught English.
