Reading the Bible with Bach The Bible plays a central role in the works of Johann Sebastian Bach. Many of the texts that Bach set to music were taken directly from the Bible. The Bible that lay on Bach’s desk will now be accessible to everyone. So you can read along with Bach. The “Bach Bible”, also known as the Calov Bible after the man who published it, is not just a Bible but a Bible commentary. Abraham Calovius added notes and commentaries to the Bible text. For this he drew on the works of Luther. In his many works Luther often commented on Bible texts. Calov brings these comments together in “NB. This chapter is the true foundation of all this three volume Bible edition. God-pleasing church music.” Thus this Bach Bible is not only a unique emotional monument: reading the Bible that Bach read and seeing the Note by Bach on 1 Chronicles 25 texts of his music highlighted in Bach’s own Bible.

  • Dieterich Buxtehude's Membra Jesu Nostri: an Historical Overview, Analysis and Conducting Guide by Youn Ju Kim a Research Pa
    Dieterich Buxtehude’s Membra Jesu Nostri: An historical overview, analysis and conducting guide by Youn Ju Kim A Research Paper Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Musical Arts Approved March 2012 by the Graduate Supervisory Committee: Gregory Gentry, Chair Gary Hill William Reber Rodney Rogers Timothy Russell ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY May 2012 ABSTRACT Dieterich Buxtehude (ca. 1637-1707) is known for his many organ works. However, no significant portion of his choral music is in the standard performing repertoire. Buxtehude’s large-scale choral work Membra Jesu Nostri should be considered a seminal “passion” composition in part because of its historic position in early German Lutheran church music. It also serves as an example of the heightened levels of affect in a seventeenth century devotional passion. To better understand Buxtehude and his music, an overview of his life, career and religious beliefs are discussed, including the incorporation of pietism and mysticism in his cantata, Membra Jesu Nostri. Details of the composition’s structure, unifying thematic elements and text sources with translations are included. Historical performance practices are discussed, including the composer’s probable intent of having one of the seven cantatas performed every day before Easter. This research study also provides conductors with a variety of practical performance considerations. Through these observations, it will be shown that Buxtehude’s Membra Jesu Nostri is one of the most well-conceived and well-constructed choral works of the early Baroque era. i DEDICATION In nomine Jesu, Soli Deo Gloria (In the name of Jesus, to God alone be the glory) And to my parents Kim, Ha Sub and Lee, Jung Ji My love and respect will always be with you.

  • LEONHARDT (Musicians and Composers of the 20Th Century
    Fitch, Frances Conover. Musicians and Composers of the 20th Century, s.v. "Gustav Leonhardt." Armenia, New York: Salem Press, 2009. Used by permission of EBSCO Information Services. A preeminent figure in the Early Music movement of the twentieth century, early keyboard player Gustav Leonhardt influenced countless students, record buyers, concertgoers, and musician colleagues through his energetic, quietly passionate performance and leadership style, his impeccable scholarship, and his brilliant and sophisticated mind. He championed the cause of the music he played and respected, rather than his own virtuosity, though that was remarkable. As a teacher and conductor he encouraged in his fellow musicians a sense of humility and curiosity about European music of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. He taught them how to breathe life into a repertoire that was, at the time, being performed in an abstract and largely intellectual manner. His particular insight into the concept of Baroque music as speech, and the role of rhetoric and articulation in creating that speech set his playing of the harpsichord apart from that of his contemporaries. The Life: Gustav Leonhardt was born into a musical Dutch-Austrian family, between the two world wars. His childhood home was in ‘s Graveland, a country town with stately homes near Hilversum in the province of North Holland, The Netherlands. His parents were accomplished amateur musicians with eclectic tastes in music, and the study of music was expected in their household. Gustav and his sister, Trudelies, were steered toward the piano and a harpsichord that their parents had bought for occasions when they played chamber music of Bach and Handel.

Buxtehude’s studies would have occurred around I 1655. At this time his fellow student was Johann Adamsz Reincken of Deventer, who would become his lifelong friend. Thanks to this friendship, he became one of that impressive group of organist- composers from the Baltic area, known collectively as the ‘Sweelinck school’. Their elevated, ‘learned’ composing style and virtuosity as performers and improvisers amounted to a carefully guarded ‘secret’ which could only be transmitted among the members of this guild, from teacher to student. While the first generation of Sweelinck’s students, the most important of whom was Scheidemann, confined themselves primarily to organ playing and composing for the organ, their students, in turn, went a step further.
