1 The second volume in the series, Music in Renaissance Ferrara by Lewis Lockwood, was also published in 1984.

2 Surprisingly, however, the notes to No. 15 referring to Pirrotta's discussion of the polyphonic setting for “Gentil Madonna” have not been expanded to include the recent editions of the piece from The Mellon Chansonnier, ed. Leeman L. Perkins and Howard Garey (Yale University Press, 1979), and The Musical Manuscript Montecassino 871, ed. Isabel Pope and Masakata Kanazawa (Oxford University Press, 1978). This is regrettable since both make suggestions for emendations to the Italian text to which Pirrotta could undoubtedly respond with his characteristic acumen.
