    Prelude (Fr. prélude; Ger. Vorspiel; It., Sp. preludio; Lat. praeludium, praeambulum) David Ledbetter and Howard Ferguson https://doi.org/10.1093/gmo/9781561592630.article.43302 Published in print: 20 January 2001 Published online: 2001 updated and revised, 1 July 2014 A term of varied application that, in its original usage, indicated a piece that preceded other music whose tonic, mode, or key it was designed to introduce; was instrumental (the roots ludus and Spiel mean ‘played’ as opposed to ‘sung’); and was improvised (hence the French préluder and the German präludieren, meaning ‘to improvise’). The term ‘praeambulum’ (preamble) adds the rhetorical function of attracting the attention of an audience and introducing a topic. The earliest notated preludes are for organ, and were used to introduce vocal music in church. Slightly later ones, for other chordal instruments such as the lute, grew out of improvisation and were a means of checking the tuning of the instrument and the quality of its tone, and of loosening the player’s fingers (as was the Tastar de corde). The purpose of notating improvisation was generally to provide models for students, so an instructive intention, often concerned with a particular aspect of instrumental technique, remained an important part of the prelude. Because improvisation may embrace a wide range of manners, styles, and techniques, the term was later applied to a variety of formal prototypes and to pieces of otherwise indeterminate genre. 1. Before 1800. David Ledbetter The oldest surviving preludes are the five short praeambula for organ in Adam Ileborgh’s tablature of 1448 (ed.

  • Web Feature 17.1 1
    Kevin Holm-Hudson Music Theory Remixed, Web Feature 17.1 1 Web Feature 17.1 Tonality as a journey The idea of key relationships in music as “distances” to be traveled goes back at least as far as the eighteenth century; in 1702 the composer J. K. F. Fischer published a collection of pieces in nineteen different keys (plus the Phrygian mode) entitled Ariadne musica. The work’s title is a reference to Ariadne’s ball of thread that guided Theseus through the labyrinth in Greek mythology; thus, this was a set of pieces that systematically and collectively explored the relationships among the different keys and “guided” the performer among them. Similarly, J. S. Bach’s son Carl Phillipp Emanuel Bach (1714– 1788) described in his influential book, Essay on the True Art of Playing Keyboard Instruments (1762), how a performer might negotiate a dramatic path among keys that had different perceived “distances” from one another: “in a free fantasia modulation may be made to closely related, remote, and all other keys.”1 He also points out: “It is one of the beauties of improvisation to feign modulation to a new key through a formal cadence and then move off in another direction. This and other rational deceptions make a fantasia attractive.”2 All the same, he cautions the performer to use restraint in structuring the improvisation in a manner that would befit a narrative, not veering off into the “adventure” at the beginning or returning “home” at the end too early: When only little time is available for the display of craftsmanship, the performer should not wander into too remote keys, for the performance must soon come to an end.

  • COMPLETE PRELUDES Alexandra Dariescu FOREWORD
    Vol . 1 COMPLETE PRELUDES Alexandra Dariescu FOREWORD I am delighted to present the first disc of a ‘Trilogy of Preludes’ containing the complete works of this genre of Frédéric Chopin and Henri Dutilleux. Capturing a musical genre from its conception to today has been an incredibly exciting journey. Chopin was the first composer to write preludes that are not what the title might suggest – introduction to other pieces – but an art form in their own right. Chopin’s set was the one to inspire generations and has influenced composers to the present day. Dutilleux’s use of polyphony, keyboard layout and harmony echoes Chopin as he too creates beauty though on a different level through his many colours and shaping of resonances. Recording the complete preludes of these two composers was an emotional roller coaster as each prelude has a different story to tell and as a whole, they go through every single emotion a human can possibly feel. Champs Hill Music Room provided the most wonderful forum for creating all of these moods. I am extremely grateful to our producer Matthew Bennett and sound engineer Dave Rowell, who were not only a fantastic team to work with but also an incredible source of information and inspiration. I would also like to express my sincere gratitude to Mary and David Bowerman and the entire team at Champs Hill for believing in me and making this project happen. Heartfelt thanks to photographer Vladimir Molico who captured the atmosphere Chopin found during the rainy winter of 1838 in Majorca through a modern adaptation of Renoir's Les Parapluies .

  • J.S. Bach - Well-Tempered Clavier 1
    J.S. BACH - WELL-TEMPERED CLAVIER 1 For more than two centuries Bach’s Well-Tempered Clavier has had a distinct status in our musical cultural heritage. No other composition has been so prevalent in reaching the performing musician, listener, theoretician and composer, even outranking the Goldberg Variations and the Inventions and Sinfonias. The Well-Tempered Clavier has virtually never been absent from the podium or the music room. Mozart, Beethoven, Chopin, Mendelssohn, Liszt, Bruckner and Brahms were all intimately familiar with this music! Not only the repeated set combination of a prelude and fugue, but also the added fact that Bach moves step by step through all the twelve major and minor keys, and does not for one moment give the impression, that it is an ingenious study piece of the composer or for the performing musician: the Well-Tempered Clavier has provided a function as an outstanding example. “Das Wohltemperirte Clavier. oder Praeludia, und Fugen durch alle Tone und Semitonia, So wohl tertiam majoram oder Ut Re Mi anlan- gend, als auch tertiam minorem oder Re Mi Fa betreffend. Zum Nutzen und Gebrauch der Lehr-begierigen Musicalischen Jugend, als auch dere in diesem stu- dio schon habil seyenden besonderem ZeitVertreib auffgesetzet und verfertigt von Johann Sebastian Bach. p.t.: HochFürstlich Anhalt- Cöthenschen Capel- Meistern und Di- rectore derer Cammer Mu- siquen. Anno 1722" Although the title page of the first book of the Well-Tempered Clavier – a similar second book would appear later – indicates the year 1722, after Bach’s death a story did the rounds for a long time that he had written the whole volume out of sheer boredom because of the lack of a clavier (in Weimar or Carlsbad).

  • GERMAN ORGAN MUSIC Volume 1 Fischer Praetorius Bohm Scheidemann and Others Joseph Payne, Organ GERMAN ORGAN MUSIC VOLUME 1
    8.550964 GERMAN ORGAN MUSIC Volume 1 Fischer Praetorius Bohm Scheidemann and others Joseph Payne, Organ GERMAN ORGAN MUSIC VOLUME 1 Organ music of the German-speaking countries is vast and varied, and more than anywhere else in Europe, it reached considerable complexity by the early 15th century. This repertory reflects the complex development of large, fixed organs, about which few generalizations can be made, as well as the more uniform evolution of smaller forms of organs. Among these was the portative, a small portable organ blown by a pair of bellows operated by one of the player's hands. Capable of performing only one part, this was a "monophonic" instrument used mainly in ensembles with other instruments and singers in the performance of polyphonic music. Somewhat larger and more or less stationary was the positive. It employed bellows that were operated by a second person, enabling the organist to use both hands so that several notes might be played simultaneously on a chromatic keyboard. Both these smaller types of organ employed flue pipes, while reed pipes were used in a third type, the regal. (There are many depictions of these small organs; a famous one can be found on the altar painting by Jan van Eyck at St. Bavo in Ghent). Towards the end of the Middle Ages, many tonal and mechanical features of the smaller organs were incorporated into the resources of the full-sized church Orgelwerk. This was a decisive step towards the modern organ: the organ came to be regarded as a composite of several instruments of various capabilities and functions, its resources controlled from several different keyboards.
