Nancy Sternlicht DELLER CONSORT f, The Deller Consort was formed by the late Alfred Deller, perhaps the world's best known countertenor, in 1950. His son Mark Deller, the current director, is also a countertenor. The group's concerts and recording of Renaissance and Baroque music have met with critical acclaim around the world. PROGRAM NOTES Most madrigals are true chamber music in that they are conceived as much for the performers as for an audience; indeed, the relationship between word and music can usually be more fully understood by the singers. The madrigal and related lighter forms originated and flourished in Italy, but spread to England and Germany as well. Hassler' s peice is a balletto, which has a chordal texture and a "fa-la" refrain; Weelkes's is an adventuresome combination of balletto and madrigal characteristics. Pilkington's and Vecchi's madrigals share the in­ dependent voices of the true madrigal, but one is sober and spiritual, the other lighthearted. Vecchi, who wrote most of his own texts, was a merry and a pious priest," according to Alfred Einstein. Gesualdo was neither merry nor pious: he murdered his wife, her lover, and her child. His madrigal is typical in its con­ trapuntal texture and its illustration of the text (as in the caught breath on the word sospiri, "sighs"); but its startling harmonies are peculiar to this brilliant but sinister nobleman. Monteverdi's dramatic declamatory madrigal of 1603 show movement in the direction of opera, the new form he was soon to master. Although John Dowland had an international reputation as a lute virtuoso and was employed by the King of Denmark, he was not able to secure a court ~ appointment at home until 1612, near the end of his creative life. The galliard dedicated to Queen Elizabeth apparently did not result in a job. Perhaps his disappointments had something to do with his carefully cultivated image as a melancholy sufferer; the punning title of his pavan means "Always Dowland, always sorrowing." His most famous composition was another pavan, "Lachrymae" ("tears"). Besides music for lute and other instruments, Dowland composed a number of beautiful songs, one of which, "Can she excuse my wrongs," has the same music as "The Earl of Essex Galliard." Henry Purcell, "Orpheus Britannicus" to his contemporaries, was for almost two hundred years considered England's greatest composer (especially since changes in muscial styles obscured the achievements of the Elizabethans). Purcell did manage to compose a quantity of excellent music in his short life. The son and nephew of musicians, Purcell's abilities won him regular employ­ ment from the time he was a boy chorister at the Chapel Royal to his appoint­ ment as organist at Westminster Abbey. By 1690, hs was much in demand as a composer of music for the theater. The soprano duet, "Oh, the sweet delights of love," was part of the music for Dioclesian, a strange hodge-podge made by Thomas Betterton from an old Fletcher and Massinger play, part native English masque, part French opera-ballet. That it was successful was largely due to Purcell's music. The dialogue, "Good neighbor," is also more memorable than the play it was composed for, Edward Ravenscroft's The Canterbury Guests. "When the cock begins 'to crow" may have been written for insertion into The Fairy Queen, but it may not even be by Purcell. "Tis wine was made to rule the day" is a drinking song of unusual magnitude; the concluding song is a witty I catch or round. The French chanson was the dominant part-song in Europe before the L spread of the madrigal, and continued to flourish alongside the Italian form. l Chanson comes in many varieties: Jannequin's is typical of lighter styles, with its homophonic texture and spritely rhythm. Costeley's setting of Ronsard's verse is slightly more complex. Antoine Boesset's song is an air de cour, a relative of the English lute song. Like Dowland and other instrumental composeres, Robert Ballard used dance forms for his pieces. Claude le Jeune worked with the Academie de poesie et musique, a group dedicated t imitating ancient Greek song. Fortunately the academic theories did not prevent the composer from pro­ ducing delightful music. Roland de Lassus had such a beautiful voice as a child that he was kidnapped three times. The last time, he was taken to Sicily where he acquired a knowledge of Italian music and an Italian name, Orlando de Lasso. This chanson is based on a popular tune. :~ Trained musicians have been arranging folksongs to good effect since the Middle Ages; Dowland use "The Woods so Wild" in the last part of his "Earl of f Essex Galliard." Two of the songs in this group are versions of ballads

  • Zarlinian Modality in Claude Le Jeune's Dodecacorde Jessica
    Zarlinian Modality in Claude Le Jeune’s Dodecacorde Jessica Herdman It is widely acknowledged that Claude Le Jeune was exalted among his contemporaries for his facility in modal composition – a reputation that he purposefully exploited through the publication of modally organized works. “According to his friend Artus Thomas and the organist Jehan Titelouze, Le Jeune excelled his predecessors in his understanding of the modes, as illustrated by… two airs performed during the wedding festivities of the Duke of Joyeuse in 1581.”1 Even in the present day, with the controversial discussion of the possible polemic between the theory and practice of mode during the Renaissance, scholars frequently point to Claude Le Jeune’s Octonaires and Dodecacorde as exemplary of a purposeful theoretical- practical union. Both of these works were explicitly intended to represent contemporary conceptions of modality; in particular, the Dodecacorde espoused an affiliation with the modal theory presented by Zarlino in his 1573 edition of Le Institutioni harmoniche.2 1 Frank Dobbins and Isabell His, “Claude Le Jeune” Grove Music Online, ed. L. Macy, http://www.grovemusic.com (accessed No- vember 8, 2007). 2 Claude Le Jeune, Dodecacorde, ed. Anne Harrinton Heider (Madi- son: A-R Editions, 1989), xvi. Heider explains that, while the name of the work, Dodecacorde, would imply an alliance with Glarean’s own theoretical Dodecacorde, Le Jeune’s modal ordering is purposely Zarlinian, placing Ionian (C–C) as the first mode (Glarean’s expansion of the modal system retained
