Music in Medieval Rituals for the End of Life is written by Elaine Stratton Hild and published by Oxford University Press. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0197685919 (ISBN 10) and 9780197685914 (ISBN 13).
Medieval documents reveal that for centuries of European history, singing for a person at the moment of death was considered to be the ideal accompaniment to a life's ending. Through investigations of four manuscripts as case studies, author Elaine Stratton Hild examines and recovers the music sung for the dying during the Middle Ages and considers the functions of the music--a lost art of comforting the dying and the grieving.
