Music Theory in Seventeenth-century England
Author: Rebecca HerissonePublisher: Oxford University Press, USA
ISBN: 9780198167006
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 354
Book Description
Thus, over the course of the seventeenth century, there occurred a complete transformation in almost every aspect of theory: by the 1720s, many of the principles being described bore close relation to those still used today. Nowhere was this metamorphosis clearer than in England where, because of a traditional emphasis on practicality, there was much more willingness to accept and encourage new theoretical ideas than on the continent.
˜Theœ Theory of Hexachords, Solmisation and the Modal System
Author: Gaston G. AllaireA Briefe Introduction to the Skill of Song by William Bathe
Author: Kevin C. KarnesPublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351578200
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 148
Book Description
Although unjustly neglected by modern writers, William Bathe‘s contributions to music pedagogy in late sixteenth-century England were profound. Bathe‘s A Briefe Introduction to the Skill of Song (1596) not only includes the first explication of a four-syllable, non-hexachordal solmization method published by an English writer (a system similar to that which would become the standard in England during the seventeenth century) but also outlines a combinatorial method for composing canons that is remarkably forward-looking in both conception and design. In addition to providing the first modern edition of Bathe‘s treatise, the volume examines the complicated compilation and publication histories of the book, the historical and theoretical foundations of Bathe‘s contributions, and the relationship between the 1596 book and Bathe‘s 1584 treatise A Briefe Introduction to the True Arte of Musicke (the extant text of which is included as an appendix).
Hexachords in Late-Renaissance Music
Author: Lionel PikePublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 0429762550
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 248
Book Description
First published in 1998, this broad survey includes a large number of musical illustrations and provides an indispensable guide for both students and teachers. Hexachords and solmization syllables formed the foundations of musical language during the sixteenth century. Yet, owing to changes over time in music education and style, there no longer exists widespread general knowledge of hexachords. Without this awareness it is impossible to appreciate fully the music of the most important composers of the Renaissance such as Palestrina, Lasso and Monteverdi. This book is the first attempt to fill such a gap in our understanding of hexachords and how they were employed in late-Renaissance music. Lionel Pike’s research covers the period from Willaert to Dowland (c. 1530-1600) and examines the ways in which the uses of hexachords developed in the hands of different composers. The book concludes with an investigation of English examples of hexachords in vocal and instrumental music.
