Download or read book Complete Book of Bach Chorales written by JERRY SILVERMAN and published by Mel Bay Publications. This book was released on 2011-03-04 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents 375 of J.S. Bach's surviving chorale harmonizations with singable English translations of the original German text by choral conductor Henry S. Drinker. Printed in an easy-to-read format, this edition was designed to facilitate both analysis of Bach's musical genius in voice leading and renewed performance of these works by congregations. It is hoped that this user-friendly edition will inspire students and congregations alike to take a fresh look at this priceless musical treasure. Today they remain some of the finest examples of voice leading and harmonic movement, making them appropriate study material for any student of music theory and harmony. Chorales are also the root of traditional hymnody, especially from the Lutheran tradition. the chorales were originally text and melody sung a cappella, and were for congregational singing. Chorales were set in four parts for choir use, and are still appropriate for performance in worship services today. Many of the melodies will be familiar to those who sing traditional hymns. Choirs will love singing these beautifully written settings.

Download or read book J S Bach s Leipzig Chorale Preludes written by Anne Leahy and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2011-10-10 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2007, the great Bach scholar Anne Leahy died at the age of 46. She was a leading light in Bach studies and lecturer at the Dublin Institute of Technology (DIT) Conservatory of Music and Drama. Posthumously edited by renowned Bach scholar Robin A. Leaver, Leahy's dissertation research forms the basis for this original study of the preludes to Bach's Leipzig chorales. Originally composed in Weimar and later revised in Leipzig, Bach's compositions have been a source of some puzzlement. As Leahy notes, "the original intentions of Bach and the possible purpose of this collection might be regarded as speculative." Working from available sources, however, she argues that through the careful examination of the links among the music, hymn texts, and theological sources some answers may be had. From Bach's personal and deep interest in Lutheran theology to his enormous musical passion, Leahy considers closely a series of critical questions: does the original manuscript for the chorales simply reflect a random gathering of compositions or is there a common theme in setting? How critical is the order of the chorales and what is the theological significance of that order? Were the chorales a unified collection, and if so, which parts were to be included and which not? Indeed, were the chorales themselves part of a possibly larger corpus? As Leahy makes evident, there are no simple answers, which is why she considers critical the relationship the texts of the hymns to the chorales and to one another, outlining a theological pattern that is vital to fully grasping the guiding philosophy of these compositions. J. S. Bach's "Leipzig" Chorale Preludes: Music, Text, Theology is ideally suited for Bach scholars and those with a general interest in the intricate connections between text and music in the composition of religious music.

Book excerpt: J.S. Bach's chorale settings of modal cantus firmi pose an interesting problem for the modern analyst: What assumptions'modal or tonal'does one bring to the music and what analytic techniques does one use?

Download or read book The Bach Chorale Book written by Johann Sebastian Bach and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-02-19 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Bach Chorale Book: A Collection of Hymns Set Exclusively to Chorales Unlike other hymn-books, this is a collection of Tunes with accompanying hymns, and not a collection of Hymns with accompanying tunes. The hymns are subject to the Tunes, more than the tunes to the Hymns. A departure such as this from approved practice requires explanation. Lovers of Bach are aware that this High Priest of Church Music introduced a great many of the standard Reformation hymn-tunes (called in Germany Chorales) into his sacred choral works. He did not, however, take them over in the form in which they left their composers' hands, but reharmonised their melodies (sometimes changing even the melodies themselves) in such a way as to suit the purpose and style of the larger work of which each chorale formed only a part. Not only has Bach so treated many chorales, but he has also harmonised the same chorales ln various ways. As these settings are complete in themselves no violence is done by extracting them from the many works in which they appear. Accordingly they have been gathered together by German editors into exclusive collections, in some cases with accompanying words, and in other cases with no words at all. But in neither of these forms are they of any use to English-singing Choirs. They can be played or listened to, but not sung. The majority of them, moreover, are hidden away in Cantatas that are seldom heard. Thus the two obstacles lying in the way are inaccessibility and absence of English words. My object in making this small selection has been to remove these two obstacles; so that now these glorious settings appear in a handy and inexpensive volume and can be sung to English words.
