Book excerpt: Spanish organ music of the period 1500-1800 demands a knowledge of old Spanish organ building and traditions of organ playing. Otherwise authentic performances are not possible. Before 1500, Spanish organs differed only slightly from those in the rest of Europe. During the sixteenth century, SPainish flue choruses began to take on characteristic forms. The invention and universal application of the medio registro (1570-1600) brought about unique styles of organ building and playing. The seventeenth-century Spanish ideal of small, extremely flexible organs encouraged the development of mechanical subtleties such as swell-boxes, celestes, devices for instantaneous changing of stops, etc. The SPanish liking for extreme colors was responsible for more and more refinement of the solo cornetas and reed stops. This resulted in the invention of the facade trompetas, which developed into the great eighteenth-century reed choruses. These were supplemented by enormous cornetas and llenos. After 1800, Spanish organ building entered a long decline from which it has only begun to recover. A knowledge of registrational practices on these organs can be gained by studying certain old documents. From these and from examples of Spanish music, we find that sixteenth-century registration was probably closely related to that practiced in the Low Countries. With the coming of the medio registro, registration became more and more based upon contrast of extreme colors, with clarity of line the universal common denominator. Seventeenth-century documents show a marked perference for bizarre colors, often made by openly violating the rules of registration then observed in other countries. The large eighteenth-century organs permitted the organists to reach new heights of ingenuity in their combinations of stops. The content of their music, however, seems to have declined proportionately as its outward dress became more elaborate. The Spanish continued to elaborate the Gothic systems of mensuration signs long after they had fallen into disuse elsewhere. An understanding of the SPanish signs is necessary, as they often indicate rather exactly the pace of given pieces and the relationships between their subsidiary sections. Spanish ornamentation was characteristically individualistic. Ornaments are seldom indicated in the music; nevertheless, they were expected to be extensively employed. Several old Spanish authors describe the expected ornaments in sufficient detail for modern players to approximate their style. Many of the expected semitones were not indicated in the sixteenth-century music. Apparently, every organist had his own system for supplying them. Descriptions of some of these systems have been preserved. From them, modern organists can learn to add semitones to the music in reasonable approximation of the style of some of the old masters.

Book Contemporary Organ Works by Puerto Rican Composers

Download or read book Contemporary Organ Works by Puerto Rican Composers written by Andrés Mojica-Martínez and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of organ music and pipe organs in Puerto Rico dates to Spanish colonial times. Unfortunately, most organ works composed during that period of time did not survive due to fires, hurricanes, the attacks of English and Dutch pirates, and the change of sovereignty in 1898. After the entrance of the United States in 1898, a few organ works were composed and various pipe organs were installed on the island, but no significant developments took place in Puerto Rican organ culture. Recently, with the installation of a three manual Casavant organ at the University of Puerto Rico, Rio Piedras in 2006, and the creation of the position the author occupies as organist and organ professor at the institution, new opportunities for organ music on the island have flourished. This lecture-recital centers on an investigation of the organ works of four Puerto Rican composers of the twentieth and twenty-first century: William Ortiz, Carlos Lamboy, Raymond Torres-Santos and Roberto Milano. The document includes a brief history of the pipe organ in Puerto Rico and its music, biographical notes of each composer, and an analysis of the compositions performed during the lecture recital presented on April 19, 2016 at the University of Kansas. The paper and presentation intend to expose Puerto Rican organ music to a wider audience and to inspire other generations of Puerto Rican

Book Making Modern Spain

Download or read book Making Modern Spain written by Azariah Alfante and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2023-11-10 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this elegantly written study, Alfante explores the work of select nineteenth-century writers, intellectuals, journalists, politicians, and clergy who responded to cultural and spiritual shifts caused by the movement toward secularization in Spain. Focusing on the social experience, this book probes the tensions between traditionalism and liberalism that influenced public opinion of the clergy, sacred buildings, and religious orders. The writings of Cecilia Böhl de Faber (Fernán Caballero), Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer, Benito Pérez Galdós, and José María de Pereda addressed conflicts between modernizing forces and the Catholic Church about the place of religion and its signifiers in Spanish society. Foregrounding expropriation (government confiscation of civil and ecclesiastical property) and exclaustration (the expulsion of religious communities), and drawing on archival research, the history of disentailment, cultural theory, memory studies, and sociology, Alfante demonstrates how Spain’s liberalizing movement profoundly influenced class mobility and faith among the populace.
