  • Charters: What Survives?
    Banner 4-final.qxp_Layout 1 01/11/2016 09:29 Page 1 Charters: what survives? Charters are our main source for twelh- and thirteenth-century Scotland. Most surviving charters were written for monasteries, which had many properties and privileges and gained considerable expertise in preserving their charters. However, many collections were lost when monasteries declined aer the Reformation (1560) and their lands passed to lay lords. Only 27% of Scottish charters from 1100–1250 survive as original single sheets of parchment; even fewer still have their seal attached. e remaining 73% exist only as later copies. Survival of charter collectionS (relating to 1100–1250) GEOGRAPHICAL SPREAD from inStitutionS founded by 1250 Our picture of documents in this period is geographically distorted. Some regions have no institutions with surviving charter collections, even as copies (like Galloway). Others had few if any monasteries, and so lacked large charter collections in the first place (like Caithness). Others are relatively well represented (like Fife). Survives Lost or unknown number of Surviving charterS CHRONOLOGICAL SPREAD (by earliest possible decade of creation) 400 Despite losses, the surviving documents point to a gradual increase Copies Originals in their use in the twelh century. 300 200 100 0 109 0s 110 0s 111 0s 112 0s 113 0s 114 0s 115 0s 116 0s 1170s 118 0s 119 0s 120 0s 121 0s 122 0s 123 0s 124 0s TYPES OF DONOR typeS of donor – Example of Melrose Abbey’s Charters It was common for monasteries to seek charters from those in Lay Lords Kings positions of authority in the kingdom: lay lords, kings and bishops.

À restante família, que sempre me apoiou. A todos os meus amigos e um especial agradecimento ao Diogo Taveira, pela sua amizade e ajuda incansável. Aos professores Luís Santos e Michel Arrignon, que para além de todo o conhecimento que me transmitiram no clarinete e na música, transmitiram valores para a vida toda. Por último, ao professor Nuno Pinto, que para além de meu professor, orientador e referência clarinetística, é um amigo que irei preservar. iv Resumo Este trabalho propõe entender as bases e as características representativas da Escola Francesa de Clarinete. É composto por uma contextualização do Conservatório de Paris, desde os seus Professores às obras escritas para o Concours de Prix, que tanta influência teve sobre esta Escola. São, também, abordados dois momentos marcantes na evolução organológica do clarinete realizado por Ivan Müller e Hyacinthe Klosé. Neste trabalho é também apresentada uma breve análise sobre quatro obras que espelham esta Escola.

  • The Recordings
    Appendix: The Recordings These are the URLs of the original locations where I found the recordings used in this book. Those without a URL came from a cassette tape, LP or CD in my personal collection, or from now-defunct YouTube or Grooveshark web pages. I had many of the other recordings in my collection already, but searched for online sources to allow the reader to hear what I heard when writing the book. Naturally, these posted “videos” will disappear over time, although most of them then re- appear six months or a year later with a new URL. If you can’t find an alternate location, send me an e-mail and let me know. In the meantime, I have provided low-level mp3 files of the tracks that are not available or that I have modified in pitch or speed in private listening vaults where they can be heard. This way, the entire book can be verified by listening to the same re- cordings and works that I heard. For locations of these private sound vaults, please e-mail me and I will send you the links. They are not to be shared or downloaded, and the selections therein are only identified by their numbers from the complete list given below. Chapter I: 0001.

  • “If Music Be the Food of Love, Play On
    As Fate Would Have It Pat Sajak and Vanna White would have been quite at home in New Orleans in January 1828. It was announced back then in L’Abeille de Nouvelle-Orléans (New Orleans Bee) that “Malcolm’s Celebrated Wheel of Fortune” was to “be handsomely illuminated this and to-morrow evenings” on Chartres Street “in honour of the occasion”. The occasion was the “Grand Jackson Celebration” where prizes totaling $121,800 were to be awarded. The “Wheel of Fortune” was known as Rota Fortunae in medieval times, and it captured the concept of Fate’s capricious nature. Chaucer employed it in the “Monk’s Tale”, and Dante used it in the “Inferno”. Shakespeare had many references, including “silly Fortune’s wildly spinning wheel” in “Henry V”. And Hamlet had those “slings and arrows” with which to contend. Dame Fortune could indeed be “outrageous”. Rota Fortunae by the Coëtivy Master, 15th century In New Orleans her fickle wheel caused Ignatius Reilly’s “pyloric valve” to close up. John Kennedy Toole’s fictional protagonist sought comfort in “The Consolation of Philosophy” by Boethius, but found none. Boethius wrote, “Are you trying to stay the force of her turning wheel? Ah! Dull-witted mortal, if Fortune begins to stay still, she is no longer Fortune.” Ignatius Reilly found “Consolation” in the “Philosophy” of Boethius. And Boethius had this to say about Dame Fortune: “I know the manifold deceits of that monstrous lady, Fortune; in particular, her fawning friendship with those whom she intends to cheat, until the moment when she unexpectedly abandons them, and leaves them reeling in agony beyond endurance.” Ignatius jotted down his fateful misfortunes in his lined Big Chief tablet adorned with a most impressive figure in full headdress.
