Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Henricus Isaac gehört zu jenen frankoflämischen Komponisten, die durch ihr Wirken an zentralen musikalischen Institutionen Europas die Musik um 1500 maßgeblich beeinflussten. Seine Tätigkeit u. a. für Kaiser Maximilian I. brachte ihn in Kontakt mit verschiedenen kompositorischen Traditionen, Musizierpraktikten und Repertoires, was sich auch in der Art und Stilhöhe der Kompositionen niederschlägt. Der vorliegende Band präsentiert Beiträge, die anlässlich des 500. Todesjahres Isaacs im Jahr 2017 entstanden sind und die unterschiedlichsten Bereiche von dessen Wirken berücksichtigen. Schwerpunkte bilden Untersuchungen zu seinen Wirkungsstätten, Fragen der Quellenüberlieferung und die Auseinandersetzung mit der instrumentalen Rezeption und Aufführungspraxis seiner Werke.

Book Quellenstudium und musikalische Analyse

Download or read book Quellenstudium und musikalische Analyse written by Peter Niedermüller and published by Ergon Verlag. This book was released on 2001 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quelle und Interpretation stehen zueinander in einem komplementaren Verhaltnis, das grundsatzlich jede geisteswissenschaftliche Arbeit strukturiert. Die divergierenden Bestimmungen und Ausdifferenzierungen der beiden Begriffe in den einzelnen Disziplinen haben dazu gefuhrt, dass sich ein breites Spektrum unterschiedlicher, teilweise auch inkompatibler Ansatze und Methoden ausgepragt hat. Die Gleichsetzung von Quelle und Texttrager, die die musikwissenschaftliche Begriffsbestimmung bis heute dominiert, bedeutet eine nicht in jedem Falle zutragliche Verkurzung, da sie Gefahr lauft, das Quellenstudium in die Schranken rein hilfswissenschaftlicher Erwagungen zu verweisen und die Interpretation - die musikalische Analyse also - zur Exegese eines von der Quelle ganzlich abgehobenen Werkes zu verklaren. Diese Problematik fokussierend, bietet der hier prasentierte Band Fallstudien zu unterschiedlichsten Epochen der Musikgeschichte - von der frankoburgundischen Chanson des 15. Jahrhunderts bis zum Jazz. Eine Gruppe von Beitragen setzt am materiellen Aspekt des Quellenbegriffs an: Am Beginn jeder Quellenerfassung steht die Frage nach der Zuverlassigkeit und Authentizitat dessen, was bezeugt ist. Auf diese aufbauend stutzt sich unsere Kenntnis von Werkgenese und Textgeschichte. Dieser Befund kann in Hinblick auf die Bestimmung der Textgestalt, sei es fur editorische oder analytische Fragestellungen fruchtbar gemacht werden. Eine andere Gruppe konzentriert sich auf Fragen des Kontextes: Dieser kann zum einen zur Typologisierung ubergeordneter Merkmale dienen (Stil, Gattung, kulturelle Identitat), zum anderen Anstosse zur Interpretation durch Phanomene der Rezeption geben, und zwar in der Untersuchung von intertextuellen Bezugen und dem durch sie signalisierten historischen Wandel von Verstehensprozessen. Die Beitrage zu diesem Thema scheinen wie kaum andere geeignet, die wissenschaftliche Arbeit von Martin Just zu wurdigen. Seine Untersuchungen von Manuskripten des 15. und 16. Jahrhunderts gehoren zu den grundlegenden Arbeiten der musikalischen Kodikologie. Parallel dazu nehmen Analysen musikalischer Werke in einem sehr breiten historischen Rahmen einen herausragenden Platz in seinen Schriften ein. Es liegt daher nahe, diese beiden Facetten von Justs Studien nicht nur separat zu betonen, sondern auf das Wechselspiel einzugehen, das sich aus deren Verbindung ergibt.

Download or read book European Music 1520 1640 written by James Haar and published by Boydell Press. This book was released on 2006 with total page 606 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries - the so-called Golden Age of Polyphony - represent a time of great change and development in European music, with the flourishing of Orlando di Lasso, Palestrina, Byrd, Victoria, Monteverdi and Schütz among others. The thirty chapters of this book, contributed by established scholars on subjects within their fields of expertise, deal with polyphonic music - sacred and secular, vocal and instrumental - during this period. The volume offers chronological surveys of national musical cultures (in Italy, France, the Netherlands, Germany, England, and Spain); genre studies (Mass, motet, madrigal, chanson, instrumental music, opera); and is completed with essays on intellectual and cultural developments and concepts relevant to music (music theory, printing, the Protestant Reformation and the corresponding Catholic movement, humanism, concepts of 'Renaissance' and 'Baroque'). It thus provides a complete overview of the music and its context.

Book Musica Poetica  Musical Rhetorical Figures in German Baroque Music

Download or read book Musica Poetica Musical Rhetorical Figures in German Baroque Music written by Dietrich Bartel and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 1997-07-01 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Musica Poetica provides an unprecedented examination of the development of Baroque musical thought. The initial chapters, which serve as an introduction to the concept and teachings of musical-rhetorical figures, explore Martin Luther’s theology of music, the development of the Baroque concept of musica poetica, the idea of the affections in German Baroque music, and that music’s use of the principles and devices of rhetoric. Dietrich Bartel then turns to more detailed considerations of the musical-rhetorical figures that were developed in Baroque treatises and publications. After brief biographical sketches of the major theorists, Bartel examines those theorists’ interpretation and classification of the figures. The book concludes with a detailed presentation of the musical-rhetorical figures, in which each theorist’s definitions are presented in the original language and in parallel English translations. Bartel’s clear, detailed analysis of German Baroque musical-rhetorical figures, combined with his careful translations of interpretations of those figures from a wide range of sources, make this book an indispensable introduction and resource for all students of Baroque music.

Book Marketing Maximilian

  • Author : Larry Silver
  • Publisher : Princeton University Press
  • Release : 2022-06-14
  • ISBN : 0691245894
  • Pages : 724 pages

Download or read book Marketing Maximilian written by Larry Silver and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2022-06-14 with total page 724 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long before the photo op, political rulers were manipulating visual imagery to cultivate their authority and spread their ideology. Born just decades after Gutenberg, the Holy Roman Emperor Maximilian I (1459-1519) was, Larry Silver argues, the first ruler to exploit the propaganda power of printed images and text. Marketing Maximilian explores how Maximilian used illustrations and other visual arts to shape his image, achieve what Max Weber calls "the routinization of charisma," strengthen the power of the Hapsburg dynasty, and help establish the Austro-Hungarian Empire. A fascinating study of the self-fashioning of an early modern ruler who was as much image-maker as emperor, Marketing Maximilian shows why Maximilian remains one of the most remarkable, innovative, and self-aggrandizing royal art patrons in European history. Silver describes how Maximilian--lacking a real capital or court center, the ability to tax, and an easily manageable territory--undertook a vast and expensive visual-media campaign to forward his extravagant claims to imperial rank, noble blood, perfect virtues, and military success. To press these claims, Maximilian patronized and often personally supervised and collaborated with the best printers, craftsmen, and artists of his time (among them no less than Albrecht Dürer) to plan and produce illustrated books, medals, heralds, armor, and an ambitious tomb monument.

Book German Histories in the Age of Reformations  1400 1650

Download or read book German Histories in the Age of Reformations 1400 1650 written by Thomas A. Brady and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2009-07-13 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book studies the connections between the political reform of the Holy Roman Empire and the German lands around 1500 and the sixteenth-century religious reformations, both Protestant and Catholic. It argues that the character of the political changes (dispersed sovereignty, local autonomy) prevented both a general reformation of the Church before 1520 and a national reformation thereafter. The resulting settlement maintained the public peace through politically structured religious communities (confessions), thereby avoiding further religious strife and fixing the confessions into the Empire's constitution. The Germans' emergence into the modern era as a people having two national religions was the reformation's principal legacy to modern Germany.

Book Hearing the Motet

    Book Details:
  • Author : Dolores Pesce
  • Publisher : Oxford University Press
  • Release : 1998-12-10
  • ISBN : 0195351657
  • Pages : 393 pages

Download or read book Hearing the Motet written by Dolores Pesce and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1998-12-10 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The motet was unquestionably one of the most important vocal genres from its inception in late twelfth-century Paris through the Counter-Reformation and beyond. Heard in both sacred and secular contexts, the motet of the Middle Ages and Renaissance incorporated a striking wealth of meaning, its verbal textures dense with literary, social, philosophic, and religious reference. In Hearing the Motet, top scholars in the field provide the fullest picture yet of the motet's "music-poetic" nature, investigating the virtuosic interplay of music and text that distinguished some of the genre's finest work and reading individual motets and motet repertories in ways that illuminate their historical and cultural backgrounds. How were motets heard in their own time? Did the same motet mean different things to different audiences? To explore these questions, the contributors go beyond traditional musicological methods, at times invoking approaches used in recent literary criticism. Providing as well a cutting-edge look at performance questions and works by composers such as Josquin, Willaert, Obrecht, Byrd, and Palestrina, the book draws a valuable new portrait of the motet composer. Here, intriguingly, the motet composer emerges as a "reader" of the surrounding culture--a musician who knew liturgical practice as well as biblical literature and its exegetical traditions, who moved in social contexts such as humanist gatherings, who understood numerical symbolism and classical allusion, who wrote subtle memorie for patrons, and who found musical models to emulate and distort. Fresh, broad-ranging, and unique, Hearing the Motet makes vital reading for scholars, performers, and students of medieval and Renaissance music, and anyone else with an interest in the musical culture of these periods. Contributors include Rebecca A. Baltzer, Margaret Bent, M. Jennifer Bloxam, David Crook, James Haar, Paula Higgins, Joseph Kerman, Patrick Macey, Craig Monson, Robert Nosow, Jessie Ann Owens, Dolores Pesce, Joshua Rifkin, Anne Walters Robertson, Richard Sherr, and Rob C. Wegman.

Book Pierre de la Rue and Musical Life at the Habsburg Burgundian Court

Download or read book Pierre de la Rue and Musical Life at the Habsburg Burgundian Court written by Honey Meconi and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2003 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For twenty-four or more years composer Pierre de la Rue (d. 1518) provided music for one of the leading musical institutions of his day, the grande chapelle of the Habsburg-Burgundian court. Serving successive rulers Maximilian I, Philip the Fair, Juana of Castile, Marguerite of Austria, and the future Charles V, La Rue surpassed a dozen composer colleagues in his creation of polyphony to meet the needs of the court and its extravagant liturgy. This study, the first ever in English, traces La Rue's life and career, explores aspects of his compositional output, and recounts the reawakening of modern scholarship to his unique contributions.
