Born May 20, 1315, she died at age 34 on to the king of Bohemia, Jean of Luxembourg. Machaut September 11, 1349, perhaps of the Black Death, the mother probably worked as Jean’s secretary, travelling all over Europe, of ten. Machaut may have undertaken the compilation of his until the king’s heroic if foolhardy death at the battle of Crécy first complete works manuscript for Bonne, in the late 1340s on August 26, 1346. (He insisted on being led into battle, (the so-called MS C), but she died before it was finished and although he was by then completely blind.) After Crécy, it was completed either for her widower Jean or for their Machaut seems to have served a number of other eminent son Charles. The lavishly illustrated book concludes with nobles, a confusing number of whom are named either Jean or the motet Trop plus est bele que Biauté, perhaps intended as Charles: his patrons included the king of Bohemia’s daughter, a memorial benediction for Bonne, “Far more beautiful than Bonne of Luxembourg; her husband Jean, duke of Normandy, Beauty itself…, better than Goodness, and full of everything, in who became King Jean II of France; their son Charles, the truth, that a good and beautiful lady should have.” The Remede future King Charles V; Charles’s brothers, Jean, duke of Berry, de Fortune, too, appears to be dedicated to Bonne: the text and Philip the Bold, duke of Burgundy; Pierre de Lusignan, identifies her more or less explicitly as the perfect lady of the king of Cyprus; King Charles of Navarre, and others. Machaut tale, to whom everyone rightly gives the name bonne. lived through the Black Death, which peaked in France in the …tousdis enclinoie years 1348-50, killing 30-60% of the European population, Mon cuer et toute ma pensee including about half of Paris’s 100,000 inhabitants. By 1360 Vers ma dame qui est clamee or so Machaut seems to have taken up residence in Reims, De tous sur toutes belle et bonne: where he had held a benefice at the Cathedral since 1338. (A Chascun par droit ce nom li donne. benefice was an ecclesiastical appointment offering a salary …my heart and all my thoughts without requirement of service in return: a literal sinecure, were ever inclined towards sine cura or free of pastoral duties.) He died sometime before my lady, who is proclaimed November 9, 1377, when his position at the Cathedral of Reims by all beautiful and good above all: passed to another. everyone rightly gives her this name. Remede de Fortune, 52-6 While Machaut’s life is sparsely documented, his works are richly transmitted in a unique series of six “complete The Remede is a dit or narrative poem of over 4000 octosyllabic works” manuscripts produced between c. 1350 and 1390, lines, telling the story of a young and inexperienced lover and mostly under the author’s supervision, several abundantly his attempt to learn how to be happy, to live and love well, illuminated. The manuscripts contain more than fifteen long despite the reversals dished out by Fortune and her wheel. narrative poems or dits; a collection of lyric poetry known as Interspersed into the highly didactic story are seven lyric the Loange des dames or Praise of Ladies, consisting of some poems, set to music, which present a catalogue of exemplary 280 poems not set to music; and a music section which forms arranged from old to new, from the traditional, virtuoso eventually comprised 19 lais, 23 motets, a setting of the lai, a comically extended complainte, and chanson royal—forms Mass, a hocket, 42 ballades, 22 rondeaux, and 33 virelais. The inherited from the previous century—to the newer forms order in which all this was to appear was carefully specified of the so-called seconde rhétorique, the ballade and related by the composer, as a manuscript compiled at the very end baladelle, the virelai, and the rondeau (here labelled rondelet).

  • Guillaume Du Fay Discography
    Guillaume Du Fay Discography Compiled by Jerome F. Weber This discography of Guillaume Du Fay (Dufay) builds on the work published in Fanfare in January and March 1980. There are more than three times as many entries in the updated version. It has been published in recognition of the publication of Guillaume Du Fay, his Life and Works by Alejandro Enrique Planchart (Cambridge, 2018) and the forthcoming two-volume Du Fay’s Legacy in Chant across Five Centuries: Recollecting the Virgin Mary in Music in Northwest Europe by Barbara Haggh-Huglo, as well as the new Opera Omnia edited by Planchart (Santa Barbara, Marisol Press, 2008–14). Works are identified following Planchart’s Opera Omnia for the most part. Listings are alphabetical by title in parts III and IV; complete Masses are chronological and Mass movements are schematic. They are grouped as follows: I. Masses II. Mass Movements and Propers III. Other Sacred Works IV. Songs (Italian, French) Secular works are identified as rondeau (r), ballade (b) and virelai (v). Dubious or unauthentic works are italicised. The recordings of each work are arranged chronologically, citing conductor, ensemble, date of recording if known, and timing if available; then the format of the recording (78, 45, LP, LP quad, MC, CD, SACD), the label, and the issue number(s). Each recorded performance is indicated, if known, as: with instruments, no instruments (n/i), or instrumental only. Album titles of mixed collections are added. ‘Se la face ay pale’ is divided into three groups, and the two transcriptions of the song in the Buxheimer Orgelbuch are arbitrarily designated ‘a’ and ‘b’.

  • Keyboard Playing and the Mechanization of Polyphony in Italian Music, Circa 1600
    Keyboard Playing and the Mechanization of Polyphony in Italian Music, Circa 1600 By Leon Chisholm A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Music in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Kate van Orden, Co-Chair Professor James Q. Davies, Co-Chair Professor Mary Ann Smart Professor Massimo Mazzotti Summer 2015 Keyboard Playing and the Mechanization of Polyphony in Italian Music, Circa 1600 Copyright 2015 by Leon Chisholm Abstract Keyboard Playing and the Mechanization of Polyphony in Italian Music, Circa 1600 by Leon Chisholm Doctor of Philosophy in Music University of California, Berkeley Professor Kate van Orden, Co-Chair Professor James Q. Davies, Co-Chair Keyboard instruments are ubiquitous in the history of European music. Despite the centrality of keyboards to everyday music making, their influence over the ways in which musicians have conceptualized music and, consequently, the music that they have created has received little attention. This dissertation explores how keyboard playing fits into revolutionary developments in music around 1600 – a period which roughly coincided with the emergence of the keyboard as the multipurpose instrument that has served musicians ever since. During the sixteenth century, keyboard playing became an increasingly common mode of experiencing polyphonic music, challenging the longstanding status of ensemble singing as the paradigmatic vehicle for the art of counterpoint – and ultimately replacing it in the eighteenth century. The competing paradigms differed radically: whereas ensemble singing comprised a group of musicians using their bodies as instruments, keyboard playing involved a lone musician operating a machine with her hands.

Le critique nomme chanson « toutes les ­­compositions monodiques destinées à être chantées, et divi- sées en strophes », ­­c’est-à-dire les « chansons dites à forme fixecomme ­­ la ballade (…) », mais aussi les « chansons définies le plus souvent par leur sujet, telles que les pastourelles, les chansons d’amour,­­ les chansons religieuses (…)1 ».
