We seek to remove all the barriers that keep us from that love. Come now to confess all that separates us from one another and from God. Prayers of Confession in Silence Corporate Confession: We come believing in our emptiness, believing that we will never have enough, believing that what we have is unworthy. We come fearful of sharing, fearful of losing our tenuous grip on security, fearful of touching and knowing the pain of others. We come overwhelmed by the hunger, overwhelmed by the suffering of children near and far, overwhelmed by the endless tales of senseless violence, greed, and death. We come aching from the weight of the responsibility, aching from the chilling challenge of knowing our abundance, aching from the gnawing awareness that we have much to share. We come clinging to our meager lunches; bless them, and us. break them, and us. share them, and us. Amen. Assurance of Pardon People: Thanks be to God.

Girolamo Frescobaldi (1583-1643) published his Fiori Musicali in 1635. The work contains three organ settings of the communion service, along with several other pieces. Frescobaldi’s printed collections contain some of the most influential music of the 17th century. His work influenced Johann Jakob Froberger, Johann Sebastian Bach, Henry Purcell, and countless other major composers. Pieces from Fiori musicali were used as models of strict counterpoint as late as the 19th century. Today’s postlude was used as a theme for variations by French composer Jean Langlais in the 20th century. It is the practice and policy of Watts Street Baptist Church to welcome and affirm all persons, regardless of race, class, origin, sexual orientation, or any other distinction. We welcome as Members those who profess “Jesus is Lord.” We receive members through baptism or by transfer of letter from another congregation.

  • Frescobaldi Gesualdo Solbiati
    Frescobaldi Gesualdo Solbiati FRANCESCO GESUALDI Accordion Girolamo Frescobaldi (1583 -1643) If we think of the theatre as a place in which audiences not only perceive with their eyes and ears, but also their deeper feelings, then the work presented in this recording Dal II Libro di Toccate is in many respects theatrical. The explanation lies in the fact that one of Francesco 1. Toccata I 4’42 Gesualdi’s particular gifts as a performer is his ability to produce sounds that conjure 2. Toccata II 4’44 up the action underlying the music, and indeed evoke the spaces in which the events 3. Toccata III, da sonarsi alla Levatione 8’51 take place. This is particularly noteworthy when performance is actually separated 4. Toccata IV, da sonarsi alla Levatione 6’58 from the reality of visualization. 5. Toccata VIII, di Durezze e Ligature 5’01 The synaesthetic experience underlying vision and visionary perception is arguably one of the fundamental ingredients of the “Second Practice”, or stile moderno, which Dal I Libro di Toccate aimed at engaging the feelings of the listener. This art was essential to the evocative 6. Partite sopra l'Aria della Romanesca (1–14) 21’49 power of Frescobaldi’s music. In his performance Francesco Gesualdi establishes a particular spatial and temporal Carlo Gesualdo (1566–1613) universe in which the constraints of absolute formal rigour are reconciled with 7. Canzon francese del Principe 6’40 freedom of accentuation and vital breath, so as to invest each execution with the immediacy of originality. In this ability to renew with each rendering, Gesualdi’s Alessandro Solbiati (1956) playing speaks for the way wonderment can forge the essential relationship between 8.

  • Bach and the Beaming of Small Note Values David Schulenberg The
    Bach and the Beaming of Small Note Values David Schulenberg The grouping of eighth, sixteenth, and smaller notes through beams is an element of notation taken for granted by many musicians. Music editors typically allow beaming to be determined by modern convention—or, increasingly, by software algorithms. Yet beaming, like other notational elements, has a history, and at least some composers have used it, consciously or unconsciously, in ways that suggest meaningful distinctions in the way notes are grouped or left ungrouped. Johann Sebastian Bach is one such composer, and editors of his music have sometimes made conscious decisions about the beaming of small note values in his works. Whether those decisions reflect Bach’s own beaming or have been imposed editorially, and whether or not the distinctions between various types of beaming are meaningful, are the subjects of this paper. The discussion opens with some theoretical considerations, continuing with the examination of beaming in several other repertories (placing Bach’s notation in a historical context), and closing with some observations about actual beaming in Bach’s music. Along the way the author offers perspectives gained from his work as a contributor to an ongoing edition of the music of Bach’s second son Carl Philipp Emanuel. One of the few scholars who have paid even glancing attention to beaming was Heinrich Schenker. Early in the twentieth century he observed several instances in which Mozart and Beethoven seem to have used beaming to reflect what he calls units or unities (Einheiten). For instance, in a passage from Mozart’s second G-minor symphony, Schenker asserts that the beaming in the autograph manuscript clarifies the resolution of a dissonance, that is, a 7–6 progression (ex.

  • Harpsichord History and Construction
    Harpsichord History and Construction The harpsichord is a stringed instrument with a keyboard, and can be considered an ancestor of the modern piano. The harpsichord developed in several countries in Europe from the time it first appeared in the late 1300’s, until the mid- 1800’s when the piano began to take precedence. The development of the instrument, its music, and the stylistic practises for playing the harpsichord varied widely depending on the country and its musical characteristics and style. Even the names were different: virginal in England; clavecin in France, cembalo in Italy and clavicimbalo in Spain. Important composers in the development of music for the harpsichord include: Girolamo Frescobaldi and Domenico Scarlatti (Italy); François Couperin and Jean-Philippe Rameau (France); John Bull and Henry Purcell (England); Johann Jakob Froberger and Georg Philipp Telemann (Germany). Harpsichords are still used today, especially to perform music of the Renaissance and Baroque eras, most commonly the music of J.S. Bach and G. F. Handel. Most harpsichords have a range of 4-5 octaves (often 59 notes). The metal strings of the harpsichord are plucked by a plectrum, originally a sturdy feather quill from a crow or raven, now usually a piece of plastic. This plectrum is held in a narrow piece of wood called a jack, which is attached to the key mechanism. Each string has its own plectrum. When the key is depressed, the plectrum is raised so it plucks the string and then pivots out of the way so it does not touch the string on the way down.
