Zusammenfassung:	The book offers an introduction and a guide to three of the principal tasks with which performers of early music engage throughout their professional lives: (1) how to transcribe music from manuscripts and early prints; (2) how to use such historical sources when editing one's own performance material; and (3) how to arrange music for early instruments. Taking its cue from the founding generation of the early music revival, the book highlights ways in which the unprecedented accessibility of sources that musicians enjoy today, and the greater control that musicians now assume over various aspects of music production, may reinvigorate the early music revival and adapt it to a changing artistic world
