Henry Lawes: Cavalier Songwriter - Oxford Monographs on Music
Spink, Ian (Emeritus Professor, Music Department, Emeritus Professor, Music Department, Royal Holloway College, London)
Although Henry Lawes wrote some church music, his significance as a composer lies in his settings of the lyrics by Cavalier poets such as Carew, Herrick, Suckling, and Waller, at the court of Charles I. This is a biography and a study of Lawes' development as a songwriter during this period.
