The Journal of the Viola da Gamba Society Text has been scanned with OCR and is therefore searchable. The format on screen does not conform with the printed Chelys. The original page numbers have been inserted within square brackets: e.g. [23]. Where necessary footnotes here run in sequence through the whole article rather than page by page and replace endnotes. The pages labelled ‘The Viola da Gamba Society Provisional Index of Viol Music’ in some early volumes are omitted here since they are up-dated as necessary as The Viola da Gamba Society Thematic Index of Music for Viols, ed. Gordon Dodd and Andrew Ashbee, 1982-, available on-line at www.vdgs.org.uk or on CD-ROM. Each item has been bookmarked: go to the ‘bookmark’ tab on the left.

THE 1600 COLLECTION OF MADRIGALS BY THOMAS WEELKES by Rachel Linsey Albert A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Music at The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee May 2014 ABSTRACT THE 1600 COLLECTION OF MADRIGALS BY THOMAS WEELKES by Rachel Linsey Albert The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, 2014 Under the Supervision of Professor Mitchell P. Brauner Thomas Weelkes in considered among the most important of the English madrigalists of the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries; however, little has been written about him. Modern scholarship begins with Edmund H. Fellowes’s edition of Weelkes’s madrigal publications. The only comprehensive study of Weelkes’s life and works is David Brown’s 1969 Thomas Weelkes: A Biographical and Critical Study. Most other Weelkes scholarship simply compares his music to that of his contemporaries. This thesis fills another gap in Weelkes studies by offering an analysis of his 1600 collection, Madrigals of 5 and 6 Parts, Apt for the Viols and Voices. -

William Byrd (c.1540-1623) William Byrd was an English composer of the Renaissance. He wrote in many of the forms current in England at the time, including sacred and secular polyphony, keyboard and consort music. It appears from recent research that he was born in 1540 in London, and he was a pupil of Thomas Tallis. He also worked in collaboration with John Sheppard and William Mundy on one of his earliest compositions, a contribution to a joint setting of the psalm In exitu Israel composed for the procession to the font at the Paschal Vigil. -

GA0190-CSCD511-Flora
FLORA GAVE ME FAIREST FLOWERS The sixteenth-century madrigal was an Italian form. The term ‘madrigal’ was loosely applied to a wide variety of music, but generally denoted a polyphonic setting for four or more voices of an amorous or pastoral text which was closely depicted in the music. Thomas Morley transplanted the form into England in the 1590s; this marked the beginning of the brief but brilliant flowering of the English madrigal. Between the 1590s and the early 1620s, twenty composers published a total of 36 books of madrigals, after which the form virtually disappeared. Some of these composers, such as Morley and Weelkes, followed the Italian model closely; others, such as Byrd and Gibbons, mostly stayed with the simpler English form of the consort song, where the tune remains in one voice, word- painting is not used, and strophic form is preferred to the continuous structure of the madrigal proper. Among the twenty-five items selected for this recording there are examples of several types of piece, ranging from true Italianate madrigals such as Too much I once lamented, via more popular ‘balletts’ such as Fyer, fyer!, to simple part-songs like A little pretty bonny lass. The variety, imagination, and inspired blending of poetry and music characteristic of the best of the ‘English Madrigal School’ (as it was called by Edmund Fellowes, who rescued it from long neglect) afford a particular kind of delight in perfomance, shared equally by singer and listener. 2 3 FLORA GAVE ME FAIREST FLOWERS English madrigals sung by members of The -
Chapter 2 the English Lute Repertory
2: The English Lute Repertory CHAPTER 2 THE ENGLISH LUTE REPERTORY … we doubt not of that truth, that will help us to believe that the lute is fit to assuage the passions … This heavenly harmony, rising unto the brain as an intellectual dew, does moisten gently the heat and dryness of it and if there be too much moisture and terrestrial vapours it dissipates and dries them by the melodious activity that produces a subtle fire[.] … it followeth that this harmony set aright the faculties of the soul and perfect them. If the heart be closed it openeth it and if it be too much opened, it gently shutteth it to embrace and keep in the sweetness that the lute inspires into its sensible concavities. … This harmony softens stony hearts and banishes the cruelty from it to give room to compassion[;] it turneth out hatred to lodge in love. Mary Burwell.1 * SHAPE AND SURVIVAL GENRES SOURCES BEFORE 1580 SOURCES 1580-1615 SOURCES AFTER 1615 THE 'GOLDEN AGE' * MUSIC SURVIVING FOR THE LUTE in French tablature emerges from three tablature traditions: French, German and Italian. The repertory in Italian tablature is the one that has fewest overlaps with the French repertory and the tablatures themselves have little in common beyond their six-line system. Since German tablature was becoming more and more unwieldy, most Germanic lute publications and manuscripts from the end of the sixteenth century on used French tablature: it also broadened the market to include most of Europe. Melchior Newsidler attempted to introduce Italian tablature in Germany with his two 1566 publications, Il primo libro intabolatura di liuto di Melchior Neysidler… and Il secondo libro intabolatura di liuto di Melchior Neysidler…, but the project appears to have been unsuccessful, as he re-issued the two books as one in German tablature, Tabulatura continens praestantissimas et selectissimas quasque cantiones, in usum Testudinis, à Melchiore Neusydler…, in 1573. -
