Extract

The Tudor Era was remarkable for the interest shown in music by all classes of society. Educationists as Sir Thomas Hoby through his translation of Castiglione's Book of the Courtier, Sir Thomas Elyot in The Boke of the Governour, Roger Ascham in Toxophilus, and Richard Mulcaster in The Elementarie write at length on the value of musical education.
