SIGNED: Leilani Johnson 4 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS A number of people have contributed to the success of this project. I thank Dr. Bruce Chamberlain for encouraging me to follow this idea, Dr. Elizabeth Schauer for human as well as academic input, and Dr. John T. Brobeck and Dr. Jay Rosenblatt for eliciting thoroughness through the kindly rigor of their questions and comments. I am indebted to fellow choral conducting graduate students for countless kindnesses and for their fine intellects, bouncing against which shaped this topic in the small picture and my studies in the larger one. Friends and family have listened to my obsession and have supported me through the years involved in earning two degrees. Emilie Sweet traveled from Minnesota to fulfill the role of an angel – in the dual sense of Weihnachtshistorie and as a friend. Norene Walters answered questions about organ technique and keyboard basso continuo performance. Sherrill Blodget, Chris Bartley, Aaron McDermid, Ken Ryals, skilled instrumentalists, members of small ensembles, and friends in Collegium musicum all helped selflessly to bring this work to life. 5 TABLE OF CONTENTS TABLE OF FIGURES...................................................................................................7 ABSTRACT...................................................................................................................8 INTRODUCTION .........................................................................................................9 Relevant Biographical Information....................................................................9 The Question of Instrumentation Described....................................................12 Focusing the Research .....................................................................................13 Proposed Instrumentation ................................................................................15 Ramifications and Summary of Study .............................................................18 Genesis of Study ..............................................................................................19 CHAPTER 1 BACKGROUND: HEINRICH SCHÜTZ IN CONTEXT ....................21 Influence of Lasso............................................................................................23 Influence of Giovanni Gabrieli (Venice, 1609-1613)......................................24 Accommodation to Shifting Resources Surrounding the Thirty Years’ War .....................................................26 Influence of Monteverdi (Venice, 1628-1629) ...............................................26 Stylistic Synthesis During Schütz’s Last Years...............................................29 a.

  • Breathtaking-Program-Notes
    PROGRAM NOTES In the 16th and 17th centuries, the cornetto was fabled for its remarkable ability to imitate the human voice. This concert is a celebration of the affinity of the cornetto and the human voice—an exploration of how they combine, converse, and complement each other, whether responding in the manner of a dialogue, or entwining as two equal partners in a musical texture. The cornetto’s bright timbre, its agility, expressive range, dynamic flexibility, and its affinity for crisp articulation seem to mimic a player speaking through his instrument. Our program, which puts voice and cornetto center stage, is called “breathtaking” because both of them make music with the breath, and because we hope the uncanny imitation will take the listener’s breath away. The Bolognese organist Maurizio Cazzati was an important, though controversial and sometimes polemical, figure in the musical life of his city. When he was appointed to the post of maestro di cappella at the basilica of San Petronio in the 1650s, he undertook a sweeping and brutal reform of the chapel, firing en masse all of the cornettists and trombonists, many of whom had given thirty or forty years of faithful service, and replacing them with violinists and cellists. He was able, however, to attract excellent singers as well as string players to the basilica. His Regina coeli, from a collection of Marian antiphons published in 1667, alternates arioso-like sections with expressive accompanied recitatives, and demonstrates a virtuosity of vocal writing that is nearly instrumental in character. We could almost say that the imitation of the voice by the cornetto and the violin alternates with an imitation of instruments by the voice.

  • 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.

  • The Development of Works for Choir and Brass: a Study of Four
    THE DEVELOPMENT OF WORKS FOR CHOIR AND BRASS: A STUDY OF FOUR REPRESENTATIVE WORKS A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of the North Dakota State University of Agriculture and Applied Science By Christina Marie Armendarez In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS Major Department: Music April 2012 Fargo, North Dakota North Dakota State University Graduate School Title THE DEVELOPMENT OF WORKS FOR CHOIR AND BRASS: A STUDY OF FOUR REPRESENTATIVE WORKS ByByBy Christina Marie Armendarez The Supervisory Committee certifies that this disquisition complies with North Dakota State University’s regulations and meets the accepted standards for the degree of DOCTDOCTOROR OF MUSICAL ARTS SUPERVISORY COMMITTEE: Dr. Jo Ann Miller Chair Dr. Michael Weber Dr. Andrew Froelich Dr. John Helgeland Approved: 4/05/2012 Dr. John Miller ii ABSTRACT As brass instruments evolved from crude instruments limited to only a few notes into instruments that could play melodic passages within the vocal range, they began to be paired with the voice. The development traced in this paper will focus primarily on the addition of brass instruments with a choral ensemble from the late Renaissance period through the Modern period. Insight into the historical use of brass and the evolution of choral and brass music allows us to better understand the genre and how subject matter, text, and/or the occasion for which the compositions were composed often influenced the composer’s decision to add brass. Four representative pieces will be studied: In Ecclesiis by Giovanni Gabrieli (c.1554-1612); Herr, unser Herscher by Heinrich Schütz (1585-1672); Ecce Sacerdos by Anton Bruckner (1824- 1896); and Ode a la Musique by Frank Martin (1890-1974).
