Dedications in Morley's Printed Music

Morley started to publish his secular music in 1593, and maintained an average of more than a volume per year seen through the press until his death in 1602. This article attempts to discover whether there were any discernible motives for dedicating works to particular patrons thereby invoking their support. Such motives may well not be apparent today removed as we are from the everyday pressures and needs of an Elizabethan musician, and Morley may even have wished to conceal his reasons for adopting certain particular patrons for his publications - possibly to avoid allegations of nepotism or unfair dealings - even if he wanted the outward display of their public support. But searching for motives behind some of the dedications is not totally futile even if it is, for lack of concrete evidence, necessarily mostly speculative.

‘Such is your divine Disposation that both you excellently understand, and royally entertaine the Exercise of Musicke.‘ So wrote John Dowland of Robert Cecil, first earl of Salisbury, in the dedicatory epistle of Andreas Ornithoparcus his Micrologus, published in 1609. Beneath the hyperbole natural to a dedication lie the essential characteristics of Cecil's musical patronage. The first part of this paper examines his royal entertainment of music in terms of the form and scale of his patronage and the ways in which music could be used within the patron-client relationship. The second part explores Cecil's excellent understanding of music and comments on his personal taste.
