^^ To write a modern edition of another collection of works by Banchierie: the Concerti ecclesiastici of 1585; (completed an edition of hi; second book of Canzoni alia franeese which is soon to be published). The concerti comprise eight-voice antiphonal motets, Magnificats, instrumental compositions, and a Mass. This edition would be a significant addition to the repertory of instrumental ensemble music and of value to musicologists.
