The Organ Ricercars of Hans Leo Hassler and Christian Erbach
INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material subm itted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame 3. When a map, dravdng or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in “sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again-beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. For any illustrations that cannot be reproduced satisfactorily by xerography, photographic prints can be purchased at additional cost and tipped into your xerographic copy. -
Wandlungen in Paul Hindemiths Bach-Verständnis Welches
BACH-BILDER IM 20. JAHRHUNDERT Hermann Danuser: DER KLASSIKER ALS JANUS? Wandlungen in Paul Hindemiths Bach-Verständnis Welches theoretische Modell man auch immer für den Gegenstand einer "Wirkungs-" oder "Rezeptionsgeschichte" bevorzugt - man kann, um grob zu kontrastieren, entweder von der Vielgestaltigkeit eines OEuvres ausgehen, dessen geistig-künstlerische Potenz auf Zeit- genossenschaft und Nachwelt "wirkt", oder aber von der Mannigfaltigkeit der Konkreti- sierungen, in denen Mit- und Nachwelt ein OEuvre "rezipiert" - , in jedem Fall darf man dem \~erk Johann Sebastian Bachs seit dem 19. Jahrhundert den Status der Klassizität beimessen, später gar - so meine ich - den einer Universalität, die von der Musik keines anderen Komponisten übertroffen oder auch nur erreicht worden ist. Dies gilt auch für die erste Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts, in kompositionsgeschichtlicher Hinsicht für diesen Zeitraum sogar ganz besonders, überdauerte doch Bach als einziger Klassiker die musikhistorische Epochenzäsur um 1920 in ungeschmälertem Maße, indem er für Roman- tik und Moderne vor dem Ersten Weltkrieg ebenso wie danach für beide Richtungen des Neoklassizismus, für die neotonale Strawinskys und Hindemiths nicht minder als für die dodekaphone der Schönberg-Schule, von freilich verschiedenartiger, stets wieder erneu- erter Bedeutung war und blieb. Solch dauerhafte Geltung aber ist undenkbar ohne tief- greifendste Wandlungen in den Rezeptionsaspekten der Bachsehen Musik. Wer sich nun das Bach-Bild Paul Hindemiths vergegenwärtigt, wird wohl zuerst an -
PAUL HINDEMITH (1895-1963) in the Later Years of His Life Paul Hindemith Had Become a Somewhat Neglected Figure
TEMPO A QUARTERLY REVIEW OF MODERN MUSIC Edited by Colin Mason © 1964 by Boosey & Hawkes Music Publishers Ltd. PAUL HINDEMITH (1895-1963) In the later years of his life Paul Hindemith had become a somewhat neglected figure. Once ranked with Stravinsky and Bartok among the most stimulating experimenters of the 1920s, he later began to lose his hold on the public, and his influence on younger composers declined, especially after 1945, when serialism started to spread widely, leaving him very much isolated in his hostility to it. Now that that issue no longer greatly agitates the musical world, it is becom- ing possible to assess more clearly the importance and individuality of his con- tribution to 20th-century music. An obvious comparison is with his compatriot of a generation earlier, Max Reger, who was similarly prolific, and in his early days was reckoned daring, but whose work later revealed an academic streak. In Hindemith one might call it rather an intellectual, rational and philosophical streak, not fatal but injurious to the spontaneous play of his musical imagination. As early as 193 1 he wrote an oratorio Das Unaufhorliche, to a text by Gottfried Benn which mocks at human illusions of what is enduring, including (besides learning, science, religion and love) art. Hindemith's choice of such a subject seems to have been symptomatic of some scepticism on his own part about art, and although his innate creative musical genius could not be repressed, it was made to struggle for survival against the theoretical restraints that he insisted on imposing upon it. -

BACH 2000 - A Summary Teldec's BACH 2000 Edition, 153 CDs in 12 volumes comprising Bach's complete works performed by world renowned Bach interpreters on period instruments, constitutes one of the most ambitious projects in recording history. BACH 2000 represents the culmination of a process that began four decades ago in 1958 with the creation of the DAS ALTE WERK label. After initially triggering an impassioned controversy, Nikolaus Harnoncourt's belief that "Early music is a foreign language which must be learned by musicians and listeners alike" has found widespread acceptance. He and his colleagues searched for original instruments to throw new light on composers and their works and significantly influenced the history of music interpretation in the second half of this century. -
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. -
MTO 19.3: Brody, Review of Matthew Dirst, Engaging Bach
Volume 19, Number 3, September 2013 Copyright © 2013 Society for Music Theory Review of Matthew Dirst, Engaging Bach: The Keyboard Legacy from Marpurg to Mendelssohn (Cambridge University Press, 2012) Christopher Brody KEYWORDS: Bach, Bach reception, Mozart, fugue, chorale, Well-Tempered Clavier Received July 2013 [1] Historical research on Johann Sebastian Bach entered its modern era in the late 1950s with the development, spearheaded by Alfred Dürr, Georg von Dadelsen, and Wisso Weiss, of the so-called “new chronology” of his works.(1) In parallel with this revolution, the history of the dissemination and reception of Bach was also being rewritten. Whereas Hans T. David and Arthur Mendel wrote, in 1945, that “Bach and his works ... [were] practically forgotten by the generations following his” (358), by 1998 Christoph Wolff could describe the far more nuanced understanding of Bach reception that had arisen in the intervening years in terms of “two complementary aspects”: on the one hand, the beginning of a more broadly based public reception of Bach’s music in the early nineteenth century, for which Mendelssohn’s 1829 performance of the St. Matthew Passion represents a decisive milestone; on the other hand, the uninterrupted reception of a more private kind, largely confined to circles of professional musicians, who regarded Bach’s fugues and chorales in particular as a continuing challenge, a source of inspiration, and a yardstick for measuring compositional quality. (485–86) [2] In most respects it is with the latter (though chronologically earlier) aspect that Matthew Dirst’s survey Engaging Bach: The Keyboard Legacy from Marpurg to Mendelssohn concerns itself, serving as a fine single-volume introduction to the “private” side of Bach reception up to about 1850. -
Dmitri Shostakovich and the Fugues of Op. 87: a Bach Bicentennial Tribute
I DMITRI SHOSTAKOVICH AND THE FUGUES OF OP. 87: A BACH BICENTENNIAL TRIBUTE THESIS Presented to the Graduate Council of the North Texas State University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of MASTER OF MUSIC By Robert M. Adams, B. M. Denton, Texas August, 1981 Adams, Robert M. , Dmitri Shostakovich and the Fugues of Op. 87: A Bach Bicentennial Tribute. Master of Music (Music Theory), August, 1981, 242 pp., 12 tables, biblio- graphy, 16 titles. In 1950-51, for the bicentennial of the death of J. S. Bach, Dmitri Shostakovich wrote his collection of Twenty-four Preludes and Fugues, Op. 87. This thesis is a study of the fugal technique of Shostakovich as observed in Op. 87, in light of the fugal style of Bach as observed in The Well-Tempered Clavier, Volume One. Individual analyses of each of the twenty-four Shostakovich pieces yield the conclusion that Op. 87 is an emulation of Bachian fugal methods as observed in The Well-Tempered Clavier, Volume One.

A Study of Musical Rhetoric in JS Bach's Organ Fugues
A Study of Musical Rhetoric in J. S. Bach’s Organ Fugues BWV 546, 552.2, 577, and 582 A document submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF MUSICAL ARTS in the Keyboard Division of the College-Conservatory of Music March 2015 by Wei-Chun Liao BFA, National Taiwan Normal University, 1999 MA, Teachers College, Columbia University, 2002 MEd, Teachers College, Columbia University, 2003 Committee Chair: Roberta Gary, DMA Abstract This study explores the musical-rhetorical tradition in German Baroque music and its connection with Johann Sebastian Bach’s fugal writing. Fugal theory according to musica poetica sources includes both contrapuntal devices and structural principles. Johann Mattheson’s dispositio model for organizing instrumental music provides an approach to comprehending the process of Baroque composition. His view on the construction of a subject also offers a way to observe a subject’s transformation in the fugal process. While fugal writing was considered the essential compositional technique for developing musical ideas in the Baroque era, a successful musical-rhetorical dispositio can shape the fugue from a simple subject into a convincing and coherent work. The analyses of the four selected fugues in this study, BWV 546, 552.2, 577, and 582, will provide a reading of the musical-rhetorical dispositio for an understanding of Bach’s fugal writing. ii Copyright © 2015 by Wei-Chun Liao All rights reserved iii Acknowledgements The completion of this document would not have been possible without the help and support of many people. -
Traces of Greco-Roman Mythology in Classical Turkish Literature: the Thread of Life / B
532 / RumeliDE Journal of Language and Literature Studies 2020.19 (June) Traces of Greco-Roman mythology in classical Turkish literature: The Thread of Life / B. Alpaydın (pp. 528-540) Traces of Greco-Roman mythology in classical Turkish literature: The Thread of Life Bilal ALPAYDIN1 APA: Alpaydın, B. (2020). Traces of Greco-Roman mythology in classical Turkish literature: The Thread of Life. RumeliDE Dil ve Edebiyat Araştırmaları Dergisi, (19), 528-540. DOI: 10.29000/rumelide.752507. Abstract It is wholly acknowledged that prior to the Turks’ conquest of Anatolia, this land was inhabited by diverse cultures and civilizations. Following its conquest, however, large segments of the various populations living in Anatolia continued to reside in their native homelands, indicating that the Turks lived together with these indigenous cultures for centuries. Greeks and Romans made up only one aspect of these various cultures. Although nowhere near as pervasive as their Persian and Arab counterparts, the cultures and mythologies of both the Greeks and Romans are discernible in Turkish culture, which is only natural after having shared the same homeland for many years in Anatolia and Europe. One such example is the occasional likening of a beloved’s hair to snakes in classical Turkish literature, reminiscent of Medusa’s own snake-like hair in Greek mythology. Indeed, the poems written in Greek by Mawlānā Jalāl al-Dīn Rūmī and Ahmed Pasha demonstrate that Turkish poets were not complete strangers to Western sources. After providing information about the three Moirai sisters known as the goddesses of fate in Greek and Roman mythology, this article will move on to address how they indirectly appear in classical Turkish literature.
