Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anyone interested in the history and development of Western music will welcome this collection of outstanding musical examples illustrating the general course of musical style from the early Middle Ages to the mid-eighteenth century. Included are 50 carefully selected compositions of great historical importance each masterful and beautiful in its own right. Selections include chants, the organum, parts of masses, motets, chansons, canzonas, lute dances, madrigals, ricercari, and clavecin pieces. Among the pieces are exquisite motets by Josquin, Lassus, and Byrd; madrigals by Marenzio and Caccini; brilliant instrumental displays by Frescobaldi, Pachelbel, Couperin, and Domenico Scarlatti; choral music by Handel and Bach, and much more. Each example is accompanied by notes that identify the place of the composition in the history of music and suggest ways for the reader to undertake a useful analysis of that music. Most examples are in easy-to-follow "short score" i.e., in two staves, lending themselves to analysis and performance by the student singly or in informal ensembles. The music can be performed either vocally or at the keyboard, allowing the reader to gain unmatched insight into the character and significance of a rich cross-section of historic styles."

This book was released on 2018-11-27 with total page 798 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Chronology of Music and Musicians Volume 2: 1700-1799 is the second of a projected eight volume set that sets out to provide a chronological history of musicians and music-making from the earliest times until the present day. The first volume, A Chronology of Music and Musicians Volume 1: From Prehistory to the 17th Century, was published in 2014. The books are arranged in a strict chronological rather than thematic sequence designed to give a picture of music history as it was unfolding. They include short biographies of all major composers and musicians as well as many others whose achievements are much less well known. They also include key events, publications and first performances. As well as charting the evolution of music as an art form through its practitioners, there is social and historical background, tales of tiffs and triumphs, prodigies and pariahs, masterpieces and murder. Assorted Bachs, Beethoven, Handel, Haydn, Mozart, Telemann and Vivaldi are just a few of the musicians and composers featured. Each year is prefaced by a short summary of world events and other major artristic achievements in the fields of art, drama and literature. Events then unfold on a month-by-month basis before concluding with a list of significant publications that appeared that year. This second volume covers the whole of the eighteenth century. The next two will focus on the nineteenth, and the final four the twentieth and twenty-first centuries.

Download or read book The Evolution of Organ Music in the 17th Century written by John R. Shannon and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-01-10 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 17th century was the century of the organ in much the same way the 19th century was the century of the piano. Almost without exception, the major composers of the century wrote for the instrument, and most of them were practicing organists themselves. This historical book surveys, analyzes, and discusses the major national styles of 17th century European organ music. Due to the extraordinarily extensive body of literature produced during this 100-year period, this text includes 350 musical examples to illustrate the various styles. The book also includes brief discussions of the various national styles of organ building, an appendix about the various notational methods used in the 17th century, and a chapter on Spain and Portugal written by Andre Lash, an expert on the subject.
