Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the relation of words and music in England and France during the three centuries following the Norman Conquest. The basic material of the study includes the chansons of the troubadours and trouvères and the varied Latin songs of the period. In addition to these 'lyric' forms, the author discusses the relations of music and poetry in dance-song, in narrative and in the ecclesiastical drama. Professor Stevens examines the ready-made, often unconscious, and misleading assumptions we bring to the study and performance of early music. In particular he affirms the importance of Number, in more than one sense, as a clue to the 'aesthetic' of the greater part of repertoire, to the relation of words and melody. and to the baffling problem of their rhythmic interpretation. This is the first wide-ranging study of words and music in this period in any language. It will be essential reading for scholars of the music and the literature of medieval Europe and will provide a basic and comprehensive introduction to the repertoire for students.

Book An Early Music Dictionary

Download or read book An Early Music Dictionary written by Graham Strahle and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 469 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this invaluable reference work, Graham Strahle has compiled dictionary definitions of musical terms, in English, as used and understood during the Renaissance and Baroque periods. The dictionary contains terms relating to instruments, performance, theory and composition and draws entirely from English sources in the period 1500-1740. The main sources are lexicographic works, mainly general English dictionaries but also Latin, Italian, French and Spanish dictionaries published in England. These give a representation of continental as well as English musical traditions. There are also definitions found in musical treatises and other musical writings of the time. The purpose is to reveal how terms and definitions were understood by musicians of the time, using their own words. The book thus provides innumerable new insights into music as played and heard in earlier times.
