Slashes, Dashes, Points, and Squares: The development of Musical Notation Slashes, Dashes, Points, and Squares: The Development of Musical Notation Music has been around for a long time; in almost every culture around the world we find evidence of music. Music throughout history started as mostly vocal music, it was transmitted orally with no written notation. During the early ninth and tenth century the written tradition started to be seen and developed. This marked the beginnings of music notation. Music notation has gone through many stages of development from neumes, square notes, and four-line staff, to modern notation. Although modern notation works very well, it is not necessarily superior to methods used in the Renaissance and Medieval periods. In Western music neumes are the name given to the first type of notation used.

  • Plainchant Tradition*
    Some Observations on the "Germanic" Plainchant Tradition* By Alexander Blachly Anyone examining the various notational systems according to which medieval scribes committed the plainchant repertory to written form must be impressed both by the obvious relatedness of the systems and by their differences. There are three main categories: the neumatic notations from the ninth, tenth, and eleventh centuries (written without a staff and incapable, therefore, of indicating precise pitches);1 the quadratic nota­ tion in use in Italy, Spain, France, and England-the "Romanic" lands­ from the twelfth century on (this is the "traditional" plainchant notation, written usually on a four-line staff and found also in most twentieth­ century printed books, e.g., Liber usualis, Antiphonale monasticum, Graduale Romanum); and the several types of Germanic notation that use a staff but retain many of the features of their neumatic ancestors. The second and third categories descended from the first. The staffless neumatic notations that transmit the Gregorian repertory in ninth-, tenth-, and eleventh-century sources, though unlike one another in some important respects, have long been recognized as transmitting the same corpus of melodies. Indeed, the high degree of concordance between manuscripts that are widely separated by time and place is one of the most remarkable aspects the plainchant tradition. As the oldest method of notating chant we know,2 neumatic notation compels detailed study; and the degree to which the neumatic manuscripts agree not only • I would like to thank Kenneth Levy, Alejandro Plan chart, and Norman Smith for reading this article prior to publication and for making useful suggestions for its improve­ ment.

Department of Comparative Literature The University of British Columbia Vancouver 8, Canada Date March 17„ 1970 Supervisor: Professor Joyce Hallamore ABSTRACT One area related to Fryderyk Chopin which has received little attention is his influence upon literature. In order to de• velop two aspects of this theme a key word "basilisk" has been introduced which Robert Schumann as music critic used in explaining the unusual impression that Chopin's music first presented on the printed page. This word, with its overtones both magical and ominous, suggests the symbol for the growing wave of aestheticism with which the cult of Chopin came to be associated. Translated into literature the expression of the Chopin cult found its way into the early writings of Thomas Mann, Hermann Hesse, and John Galsworthy.

  • The Development of the Russian Piano Concerto in the Nineteenth Century Jeremy Paul Norris Doctor of Philosophy Department of Mu
    The Development of the Russian Piano Concerto in the Nineteenth Century Jeremy Paul Norris Doctor of Philosophy Department of Music 1988 December The Development of the Russian Piano Concerto in the Nineteenth Century Jeremy Paul Norris The Russian piano concerto could not have had more inauspicious beginnings. Unlike the symphonic poem (and, indirectly, the symphony) - genres for which Glinka, the so-called 'Father of Russian Music', provided an invaluable model: 'Well? It's all in "Kamarinskaya", just as the whole oak is in the acorn' to quote Tchaikovsky - the Russian piano concerto had no such indigenous prototype. All that existed to inspire would-be concerto composers were a handful of inferior pot- pourris and variations for piano and orchestra and a negligible concerto by Villoing dating from the 1830s. Rubinstein's five con- certos certainly offered something more substantial, as Tchaikovsky acknowledged in his First Concerto, but by this time the century was approaching its final quarter. This absence of a prototype is reflected in all aspects of Russian concerto composition. Most Russian concertos lean perceptibly on the stylistic features of Western European composers and several can be justly accused of plagiarism. Furthermore, Russian composers faced formidable problems concerning the structural organization of their concertos, a factor which contributed to the inability of several, including Balakirev and Taneyev, to complete their works. Even Tchaikovsky encountered difficulties which he was not always able to overcome. The most successful Russian piano concertos of the nineteenth century, Tchaikovsky's No.1 in B flat minor, Rimsky-Korsakov's Concerto in C sharp minor and Balakirev's Concerto in E flat, returned ii to indigenous sources of inspiration: Russian folk song and Russian orthodox chant.

Music exists solely among humans, for man has been created imago Dei (in the image of God). God has given mankind the creativity to study, shape and develop music to see the beauty and intricacy that ultimately is a reflection of His character. In the words of Martin Luther, But when [musical] learning is added to all this and artistic music, which corrects, develops, and refines the natural music, then at last it is possible to taste with wonder (yet not to comprehend) God’s absolute and perfect wisdom in His wondrous work of music.

    Organ Registration: The Organist’s Palette—An Orchestra at Your Fingertips By Dr. Bradley Hunter Welch I. Basic Review of Organ Tone (see www.organstops.org for reference) A. Two types of tone—flue & reed 1. Flue a. Principals (“Principal, Diapason, Montre, Octave, Super Octave, Fifteenth”) & Mixtures b. Flutes (any name containing “flute” or “flöte” or “flauto” as well as “Bourdon, Gedeckt, Nachthorn, Quintaton”) c. Strings (“Viole de Gambe, Viole Celeste, Voix Celeste, Violone, Gamba”) 2. Reed (“Trompette, Hautbois [Oboe], Clarion, Fagotto [Basson], Bombarde, Posaune [Trombone], English Horn, Krummhorn, Clarinet”, etc.) a. Conical reeds i. “Chorus” reeds—Trompette, Bombarde, Clarion, Hautbois ii. Orchestral, “imitative” reeds—English Horn, French Horn b. Cylindrical reeds (very prominent even-numbered overtones) i. Baroque, “color” reeds— Cromorne, Dulzian, some ex. of Schalmei (can also be conical) ii. Orchestral, “imitative” reeds—Clarinet (or Cor di Bassetto or Basset Horn) Listen to pipes in the bottom range and try to hear harmonic development. Begin by hearing the prominent 2nd overtone of the Cromorne 8' (overtone at 2 2/3' pitch); then hear 4th overtone (at 1 3/5'). B. Pitch name on stop indicates “speaking” length of the pipe played by low C on that rank II. Scaling A. Differences in scale among families of organ tone 1. Flutes are broadest scale (similar to “oo” or “oh” vowel) 2. Principals are in the middle—narrower than flutes (similar to “ah” vowel) 3. Strings are narrowest scale (similar to “ee” vowel) B. Differences in scale according to era of organ construction 1. In general, organs built in early 20th century (1920s-1940s): principals and flutes are broad in scale (darker, fuller sound), and strings tend to be very thin, keen.
