LITURGY OF THE WORD FIRST READING Exodus 22:20-26 Thus says the Lord: “You shall not molest or oppress an alien, for you were once aliens yourselves in the land of Egypt. You shall not wrong any widow or orphan. If ever you wrong them and they cry out to me, I will surely hear their cry. My wrath will flare up, and I will kill you with the sword; then your own wives will be widows, and your children orphans. “If you lend money to one of your poor neighbors among my people, you shall not act like an extortioner toward him by demanding interest from him. If you take your neighbor’s cloak as a pledge, you shall return it to him before sunset; for this cloak of his is the only covering he has for his body. What else has he to sleep in?

And you became imitators of us and of the Lord, receiving the word in great affliction, with joy from the Holy Spirit, so that you became a model for all the believers in Macedonia and in Achaia. For from you the word of the Lord has sounded forth not only in Macedonia and in Achaia, but in every place your faith in God has gone forth, so that we have no need to say anything. For they themselves openly declare about us what sort of reception we had among you, and how you turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God and to await his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, Jesus, who delivers us from the coming wrath.

GOSPEL Matthew 22:34-40 When the Pharisees heard that Jesus had silenced the Sadducees, they gathered together, and one of them, a scholar of the law tested him by asking, “Teacher, which commandment in the law is the greatest?” He said to him, “You shall love the Lord, your God, with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the greatest and the first commandment. The second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. The whole law and the prophets depend on these two commandments.” HOMILY 4 CREDO (sung at 12:00 Noon) Chant, mode iv 5 6 UNIVERSAL PRAYER Recited at Masses from the Feast of St. Luke (October 18) until the Feast of Sts.

He became organist of Brescia Cathedral (the Duomo Vecchio) in 1556, and was appointed second organist of St.

    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 Science and Art of Renaissance Music-Princeton University Press
    CHAPTER ONE A Sixteenth-Century Attempt at Music Criticism A COMPLAINT SOMETIMES MADE about theorists, at least about those active be- fore the middle of the nineteenth century, is that their concerns are too exclusively prescriptive, that they rarely describe music, much less evaluate it. As musicians we can enjoy what we take to be timeless aspects of the music of the past, and we feel to a certain extent confident in our ability to distinguish level of quality and de- gree of attractiveness in it—in short to make it live as part of our own musical cul- ture. As scholars we can learn a good deal about the musical life of a period such as the Renaissance. As analysts we can take almost any music apart and reassemble it, using theoretical writings of the appropriate period as manuals wherever they are helpful. But as historians concerned not only with cultural artifacts but also with the intellectual and artistic outlook of the past we want to know not just how music was made but why it took the shapes it did, and especially how it was heard and crit- icized by those who first performed and listened to it. Not how everyone heard it, of course; if we look at the general reception of art music in our own time we can see that random sampling of opinion would not get us far, and there is no reason to sen- timentalize about a past when everyone understood and loved contemporary cul- ture. We do want to know what those critics have to say who are equipped by train- ing and temperament to give sympathetic judgment on modern music; and it is a group of this sort, comparatively large in some periods and very small in others, that we would like to have speak to us from the past.

    Personal Prayer : Music from the Earliest Notations to the Sixteent... http://www.oxfordwesternmusic.com/view/Volume1/actrade-9780... Oxford History of Western Music: Richard Taruskin See also from Grove Music Online Marian antiphon Guillaume Du Fay PERSONAL PRAYER Chapter: CHAPTER 13 Middle and Low Source: MUSIC FROM THE EARLIEST NOTATIONS TO THE SIXTEENTH CENTURY Author(s): Richard Taruskin These Marian antiphon settings sound a conspicuously personal note that we have not previously encountered in liturgical music. That is another aspect of “middling” tone; but it accords well with the votive aspects of Marian worship, the component of the Christian liturgy that in those days was most intensely “personal.” That, too, was something that could be thematized by a knowing composer, especially a knowing churchman-composer. The supreme case in point for a fifteenth-century motet is the third and most splendid setting Du Fay made of the Marian antiphon Ave Regina coelorum, copied into the choirbooks of Cambrai Cathedral in 1465. It is as impressive a motet as Du Fay or anyone ever composed, but it is impressive in an altogether different way from his earlier large-scale motet settings. Where the isorhythmic Nuper rosarum flores (Ex. 8-8) had impressed by its monumentality, Ave Regina coelorum impresses with an altogether unprecedented expressive intensity—unprecedented, that is, within the motet genre. The personal and votive aspect of this motet are epitomized in a moving set of tropes that Du Fay interpolated into the canonical text of the antiphon, representing a prayer for his own salvation that he wanted sung at his deathbed, and that he wanted to go on being recited after his death in perpetuity, for which, a rich man, he provided an endowment in his will: Ave regina coelorum, Hail, O Queen of Heaven! Ave Domina angelorum, Hail, O Ruler of the Angels! Miserere tui Have mercy on labentis Dufaÿ Thy failing Du Fay, Ne peccatorum throw him not into the in ignem fervorum.

Oltre 120 i gruppi vocali sin’ora ospitati: italiani, cecki, americani, svedesi, tedeschi, francesi, olandesi, danesi, austriaci, svizzeri, russi, israeliani,estoni, giapponesi, inglesi, norvegesi, con oltre 2000 esecutori, scelti senza preclusione di stili ma solo per l’interesse dei programmi musicali proposti e per la loro provata e accredita- ta qualità artistica, come i famosissimi e bravissimi Swingle Singers presenti nella la scorsa edizione. Quest’anno salutiamo il felice ritorno al festival dell’ensemble Costanzo Porta, gruppo emergente e presenza stabile al Festival Monteverdi di Cremona che proporrà una selezione di alcuni tra i più noti madrigali di Monteverdi e Gabrie- li, cui farà da contraltare la proposta dei Maybe6ix vocal group che diffonde attraverso una nuova sperimentazione il meglio della musica Pop italiana in cui le più note canzoni d’autore diventano singolari ”madrigali” in pieno stile contrappuntistico.
