ANKLAENGE 2020/2021 by Augusta Campagne,Markus Grassl Pdf

Dieser Band behandelt ein zentrales Moment der Entwicklung in der italienischen Musik um 1600, das gleichermaßen Geschichte des Komponierens, Notierens und der Aufführungspraxis betrifft: die Integration von Akkordinstrumenten in die musikalische Produktion (im weitesten Sinn). Dabei steht das Phänomen des Generalbasses im Mittelpunkt, das nicht nur zahlreiche aufführungspraktische, sondern auch diverse historiographische Fragen aufwirft. So ist der Generalbass nur eine Spielart innerhalb eines breiten Spektrums musikalischer Praktiekn, er resultiert aus vielfältigen historischen Voraussetzungen und steht in Wechselwirkung mit dem Komponieren, der (theoretischen) Konzeption des mehrstimmigen Satzes, aber auch dem musikkulturellen Kontext des späten 16. und frühen 17. Jahrhunderts.

Francesco Bartolomeo Conti by Hermine Weigel Williams Pdf

First Published in 1999, Hermine Weigel Williams’ study draws on more than thirty years of research to fill this noticeable lacuna , and presents here the first full scale life and works of the composer for over ninety years. Part One of the book surveys the biographical aspects of Conti’s career. Appointed court theorist at the age of nineteen, Conti was promoted to court composer in 1713-14. Williams examines Conti’s creative collaborations with some of the leading poet-librettists of the day, and the influence of his music that can be identified in works by Telemann, Bach and Handel. Part Two comprises close analyses of Conti’s compositions: his instrumental music, cantatas, operas, intermezzos, oratorios and sacred music. Williams reveals Conti as a composer who constantly experimented with a wide range of French, German and Italian ideas and techniques to create his own diverse musico-dramatic style.

The Work of Music Theory by Thomas Christensen Pdf

This collection brings together an anthology of articles by Thomas Christensen, one of the leading historians of music theory active today. Published over the span of the past 25 years, the selected articles provide a historical conspectus about a range of vital topics in the history of music theory, focusing in particular upon writings from the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Christensen examines a variety of theorists and their arguments within the intellectual and musical contexts of their time, in the process highlighting the diverse and idiosyncratic nature of the discipline of music theory itself. In the first section of the book Christensen offers general reflections on the meaning and interpretation of historical music theories, with especial attention paid to their value for music theorists today. The second section of the book contains a number of articles that consider the catalytic role of the thorough bass in the development of harmonic theory during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. In the final two sections of the anthology, focus turns to the writings of several individual music theorists, including Marin Mersenne, Seth Calvisius, Johann Mattheson, Johann Nicolaus Bach, Denis Diderot and Johann Nichelmann. The volume includes essays from hard-to-find publications as well as newly-translated material and the articles are prefaced by a new, wide-ranging autobiographical essay by the author that offers a broad re-assessment of his historical project. This book is essential reading for music theorists and seventeenth- and eighteenth-century musicologists.

The Lute in Britain by Matthew Spring Pdf

"Spring focuses on the lute in Britain, but also includes two chapters devoted to continental developments: one on the transition from medieval to renaissance, the other on renaissance to baroque, and the lute in Britain is never treated in isolation. Six chapters cover all aspects of the lute's history and its music in England from 1285 to well into the eighteenth century, whilst other chapters cover the instrument's early history, the lute in consort, lute song accompaniment, the theorbo, and the lute in Scotland."--Jacket.
