Airs or Fantastic Spirits (1895)

Thomas Weelkes

Airs or Fantastic Spirits is a book of music composed by Thomas Weelkes and published in 1895. The book contains a collection of songs and madrigals, which are short musical compositions for several voices. The songs in this book are written in the English language and are meant to be sung a cappella, without any instrumental accompaniment. The music in this book is known for its lively and playful melodies, as well as its intricate harmonies and counterpoint. Weelkes was a prominent composer of the English Renaissance, and his music was highly regarded during his lifetime. This book is a testament to his skill as a composer and his contributions to the development of English music. It is a valuable resource for musicians, historians, and anyone interested in the music of the Renaissance period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
