By the middle of the 16th century, not only music, but associated treatises, text books, instruction manuals and tutors were being produced in bulk to cater for a growing audience in the larger urban centres of Renaissance Italy. This text examines the impact of the spread of printing on the publication of music in early 16th-century Italy, where the first collections of printed music were printed and the market was created. The volume comprises the 10th series of Panizzi lectures, delivered at the British Library in 1994.

Part of the material for the lectures is drawn from the British Library's extensive collection.
