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.

  • Choral Secular Music Through the Ages
    Choral Secular Music through the ages The Naxos catalogue for secular choral music is such a rich collection of treasures, it almost defi es description. All periods are represented, from Adam de la Halle’s medieval romp Le Jeu de Robin et Marion, the earliest known opera, to the extraordinary fusion of ethnic and avant-garde styles in Leonardo Balada’s María Sabina. Core repertoire includes cantatas by J.S. Bach, Beethoven’s glorious Symphony No. 9, and a “must have” (Classic FM) version of Carl Orff’s famous Carmina Burana conducted by Marin Alsop. You can explore national styles and traditions from the British clarity of Elgar, Finzi, Britten and Tippett, to the stateside eloquence of Eric Whitacre’s “superb” (Gramophone) choral program, William Bolcom’s ‘Best Classical Album’ Grammy award winning William Blake songs, and Samuel Barber’s much loved choral music. Staggering emotional range extends from the anguish and passion in Gesualdo’s and Monteverdi’s Madrigals, through the stern intensity of Shostakovich’s Execution of Stepan Razin to the riot of color and wit which is Maurice Saylor’s The Hunting of the Snark. Grand narratives such as Handel’s Hercules and Martinů’s Epic of Gilgamesh can be found alongside tender miniatures by Schubert and Webern. The Naxos promise of uncompromising standards of quality at affordable prices is upheld both in performances and recordings. You will fi nd leading soloists and choirs conducted by familiar names such as Antoni Wit, Gerard Schwarz, Leonard Slatkin and Robert Craft. There is also a vast resource of collections available, from Elizabethan, Renaissance and Flemish songs and French chansons to American choral works, music for children, Red Army Choruses, singing nuns, and Broadway favorites – indeed, something for everyone.

  • Chapter 7 -- Secular Medieval Music
    Chapter 7 -- Secular Medieval Music Illustration 1: Master of the Saint Bartholomew Alter "The Baptism of Christ" detail (1485) The vast majority of music that survives from the Medieval Period is sacred. While we have much more than we do from Classical Greece (and we have a good idea of what it sounded like), most of the music handed down from this era is sacred. There are a couple of good reasons for this. First, a keyword in the above statement is survives. One of the great casualties of the collapse of the Roman Empire and the destruction of the storehouse of knowledge at Alexandria was literacy. The ability to read and write took a back seat to simple survival for the average person. When there were few manuscripts of any kind for people to read, it was a nearly useless skill—probably worse than useless given that survival was a job that required virtually every waking moment. The few people who were able to read and write were the nobility (because their lives could afford such a luxury) and the clergy (whose job was heavily involved with the understanding, preservation, and dissemination of the Bible and the liturgy). The ability to read and write music was shared by the same two groups. There is a good collection of secular music from the Middle Ages, but given human nature we know there must have been more. While they wouldn't have had organized concerts like ours in the symphony hall, there would have been many social occasions where music was present.

  • The Renaissance Period (1400 – 1600) a Cappella: the Golden Age
    General Music Cycle 7 Mr. Hamilton Period 3A The Renaissance Period (1400 – 1600) Renaissance means rebirth. This period saw a rebirth in knowledge. The Renaissance was turning from God to man. Science and the arts were becoming more important. Christopher Columbus discovered America and Michelangelo was painting the Sistine Chapel. William Shakespeare was writing his famous plays. Secular music is non-religious music and it was becoming more popular during this time. There was a rise in instrumental music and dance music, too. Johannes Gutenberg invented the printing press during the Renaissance. Some people consider the printing press to be the most important contribution to civilization in the last one thousand years! The printing press allowed documents to be printed quickly. Before the Renaissance, documents had to be copied by hand. One of the most famous persons from the Renaissance was Leonardo da Vinci. He was known as a Renaissance man because he could do many things well. He was a painter, architect, inventor, scientist, poet, musician, and teacher. A Cappella: The Golden Age of Singing This was the golden age of the a cappella style. That means that singers sang without instruments. At this point in history, vocal music was still more important than instrumental music. Madrigals were popular during the Renaissance. These song forms were performed in groups of four, five, or six singers. A madrigal is secular music. This is non-religious music. Madrigals were usually love songs. Religious music was still very important. Choral music of the Renaissance was an extension of the Gregorian chant. It was sung a cappella and sung in Latin.

  • Music Appreciation Curriculum
    Music Appreciation Curriculum Grade 9-12: Unit 1 Elements of Music/ The Middle Ages and Renaissance 1 | P a g e Course Description Music Appreciation is an exploration in the materials and masterworks of world music. This course is designed to survey different musical styles and periods with the intent of increasing students’ enjoyment of music and developing their artistic and technical judgment. Students begin by studying elements of music such as pitch, melody, rhythm, harmony, key, texture and form, then learn about the instruments of the orchestra and build a comprehensive vocabulary with which they will analyze and evaluate musical expression. From there, students will survey the continuum of musical history in Western Civilization in a chronological order, from the Middle Ages to the present by analyzing the form, function, craftsmanship, and originality of representative works of music and examining the role that representative composers had in affecting established or emergent forms of musical expression. Main stylistic, cultural, political and historical trends of the period will be discussed to place musical events within their cultural and historical context. Although discussions of the pieces requires no knowledge of musical notation, all of the content is taught with an aural component with the aim to foster the development of aural skills that lead to an understanding of music. 2 | P a g e Pacing Chart Unit 1 Elements of Music Seven weeks The Middle Ages and Renaissance Unit 2 The Baroque Period Seven weeks The Classical

Two hypotheses were proposed: First, students with higher levels of spirituality would experience higher emotional intensity while listening to music. Second, students will experience equal emotional intensity when listening to the “sacred” or “secular” selections. In answer to the first hypothesis, results indicated that overall intensity in emotional response to musical selections did significantly and positively correlate with higher spirituality scores. In answer to the second hypothesis, the strength of emotional intensity did differ, and intensity was found to be significantly higher for the secular musical selections. Implications of these results are explored. SPIRITUALITY AND MUSIC 4 The Psychological Relationship Between Spirituality and Emotional Responses to Music Music is a uniquely human experience, and for years, researchers have sought to narrow down and define this experience by its psychological elements.

The challenge was to convey a sense of style, form, and feeling in the music. To do this it was necessary to analyze the conducting prob- lems in each piece, be they rhythmic, harmonic, textural, or metric in nature, and then try to solve them by the use of specific conducting and rehearsal techniques. Mozart's Missa Brevis in D Major, K.V. 194, written in August of 1774, is one of a group of twelve written between 1768-1773; ten of them written in Salzburg.
