Book excerpt: JOHANNES OCKEGHEM (1410/1425-1497) est depuis la Renaissance au centre des préoccupations de théoriciens, d'amateurs, de musicologues qui se penchent sur le XVe siècle. Jugé par les uns compositeur difficile, voire énigmatique, hautement intellectuel ou même mystique, d'autres perçoivent dans sa technique musicale des éléments irrationnels que certains interprètent comme les traces d'une rationalité aboutie. Selon Erasme, il était " summo musico " et possédait une " aurea vox ". " Roy sur tous les chantres " aux dires de Nicole Le Vestu ou encore " Sol lucens super omnes " pour Molinet. Cosimo Bartoli n'hésite pas à le comparer à Donatello et le qualifie " homme de la Renaissance ". Né dans le Hainaut, il travaille quelques années à Anvers et à Moulins avant de s'installer à Tours où il exercera plusieurs fonctions officielles : premier chapelain du roi ainsi que chanoine et trésorier de la basilique Saint-Martin, il fut également mainte de chapelle à la cour de Charles VII et Louis XI. Ce volume réunit les contributions au XIe Colloque d'études humanistes qui s'est tenu au Centre d'Etudes Supérieures de la Renaissance en février 1997 à l'occasion du cinquième centenaire de la mort du compositeur.

Book excerpt: Through forty-five creative and concise essays by an international team of authors, this Cambridge History brings the fifteenth century to life for both specialists and general readers. Combining the best qualities of survey texts and scholarly literature, the book offers authoritative overviews of central composers, genres, and musical institutions as well as new and provocative reassessments of the work concept, the boundaries between improvisation and composition, the practice of listening, humanism, musical borrowing, and other topics. Multidisciplinary studies of music and architecture, feasting, poetry, politics, liturgy, and religious devotion rub shoulders with studies of compositional techniques, musical notation, music manuscripts, and reception history. Generously illustrated with figures and examples, this volume paints a vibrant picture of musical life in a period characterized by extraordinary innovation and artistic achievement.

Book excerpt: The universally acclaimed and award-winning Oxford History of Western Music is the eminent musicologist Richard Taruskin's provocative, erudite telling of the story of Western music from its earliest days to the present. Each book in this superlative five-volume set illuminates-through a representative sampling of masterworks- the themes, styles, and currents that give shape and direction to a significant period in the history of Western music. This first volume in Richard Taruskin's majestic history, Music from the Earliest Notations to the Sixteenth Century , sweeps across centuries of musical innovation to shed light on the early forces that shaped the development of the Western classical tradition. Beginning with the invention of musical notation more than a thousand years ago, Taruskin addresses topics such as the legend of Saint Gregory and Gregorian chant, Augustine's and Boethius's thoughts on music, the liturgical dramas of Hildegard of Bingen, the growth of the music printing business, the literary revolution and the English madrigal, the influence of the Reformation and the Counter-Reformation, and the operas of Monteverdi. Laced with brilliant observations, memorable musical analysis, and a panoramic sense of the interactions between history, culture, politics, art, literature, religion, and music, this book will be essential reading for anyone who wishes to understand this rich and diverse period.
